In this meeting of our monthly book club, hosted by HMTC’s Louis Posner Memorial Library, we will be discussing Maus I & II, by Art Spiegelman’s. This Pulitzer Prize-winning book, written in the graphic novel style, is a story of survival and a disarming look at the legacy of trauma. Using hand-drawn pictures of Jews as mice and Nazis as cats, the book powerfully depicts Spiegelman's heartfelt interviews with his aging father, a Polish Jew and Holocaust survivor, and then tells the desperate story of his father's experiences as a prisoner in Auschwitz.
