MAUS I surprised me. Even though I thought I knew pieces and portions about the Holocaust quite well, this is different. MAUS I is an auto- and biography that covered the past of his parents and the present of their relationship. The author and illustrator, Art Spiegelman, drew himself, his wife, Françoise Mouly, his dad Vladek, and his dad’s second wife, Mala, into the book. The chaotic interviews and hostility-filled interactions are included. Art’s mom, Anya, committed suicide when he was 20, leaving behind the grief-stricken Vladek. The generational trauma affected not just his parents but also placed demands and expectations on Art. Especially after Anya’s death, father and son became estranged, miraculously coming together for these interviews.

Book I also surprised me that Vladek (and Anya) Spiegelman went multiple rounds from being drafted in Poland, caught and became prisoner of war, released, reunited with Anya and extended family, hiding, escaping, and more, before finally being caught and sent to Auschwitz. Book I doesn’t even include the Auschwitz portion yet, and it was incredibly powerful. I was floored by all their efforts to evade capture.

MAUS is the first and, thus far, only graphic novel to have won the Pulitzer Prize.

MAUS became famous in recent years as a banned book. Naturally, I read MAUS because of that. Thank you to the idiots who banned it and inspired me to read an excellent book!

A note to parents: Even though Art Spiegelman used mice to depict Jews, cats to depict Germans, and pigs to depict Poles, the hostility, fear, and violence are obvious. Art also included the pages of his short graphic strip that addressed his mother’s suicide, including himself in a prisoner’s striped outfit, since he had left the state mental hospital just months before and was living at home. This portion is blunt and graphic with his mother found naked in the bathroom in a pool of blood. This portion is in human figures. ( )

I'd heard of Maus before, of course -- it's one of the most famous non-fiction graphic novels -- but I hadn't gotten around to reading it until I saw it in a "banned books" display at my local bookstore and picked up a copy.

It's interesting that the "framing device" of Vladek telling Art the story is very present -- the story is always told via his narration, and there are lots of scenes in the present day where we see his strained relationships with his remaining family.

The art choice (Jews are drawn as mice, Nazis as cats, Poles and Germans as pigs) sounds like it should be weird, but it's effective. I particularly like how when Vladek is trying to pass as a non-Jewish person, he's drawn wearing a pig mask. ( )

Being the rebel that I am, I had to read this because it was put on the banned list. I cannot fathom how anyone would have a problem with a child reading this unless they do not want them to know about history. ( )

Heartbreaking , but couldn’t put it down. ( )

The story of Polish Jew Vladek Spiegelman, as told to his son, is not an easy one. In this 1st volume of 2, we're shown in images what Vladek's life was in the time leading up to and in the early days of the Nazis' suppression of Jews in Poland. In tandem, Art shows his research process with his father, as he tries to interview him about his past and get along with him at the same time. The 1st volume takes Vladek right up to the gates of Auschwitz, and takes Art to the brink of despair with his tormented father.

The horrific things that happened during the time leading up to the Holocaust (and some of the beginning) is difficult enough to read about, but to see it in this format can make it even more difficult. Spiegelman doesn't pull any punches in his father's account or his own. It's a depressing story, yet I've always appreciated reading about the amazing ingenuity of survivors of the Holocaust. Even while we see the depths of human depravity, we also see a shining light as those who are basically safe (the Germans may not have been rounding up the average Polish citizen, but they weren't exactly making life easy on them either) risk their own safety to help those who are being persecuted.

I've always been fascinated by stories like this, preferring real accounts to fictional ones, and it's difficult not to imagine myself in that situation. While the characters in this book are depicted as animals, in a way, this adds another layer to the realism while also making it a little more palatable (though just a little). I would recommend this to be read by anyone interested in this part of history, even if you don't normally read graphic novels. I don't either, but this book, and it's follow-up, have captivated me for years. ( )

Making a Holocaust comic book with Jews as mice and Germans as cats would probably strike most people as flippant, if not appalling. ''Maus: A Survivor's Tale'' is the opposite of flippant and appalling. To express yourself as an artist, you must find a form that leaves you in control but doesn't leave you by yourself. That's how ''Maus'' looks to me - a way Mr. Spiegelman found of making art.
