Reviews for Maus: A Survivors Tale Omnibus (GN): My Father Bleeds History / And Here My Trou

A loving documentary and brutal fable, a mix of compassion and stoicism [that] sums up the experience of the Holocaust with as much power and as little pretension as any other work I can think of. -<i>The New Republic A quiet triumph, moving and simple-impossible to describe accurately, and impossible to achieve in any medium but comics. -The <i>Washington Post Spiegelman has turned the exuberant fantasy of comics inside out by giving us the most incredible fantasy in comics' history: something that actually occurred.... The central relationship is not that of cat and mouse, but that of Art and Vladek. <i>Maus</i> is terrifying not for its brutality, but for its tenderness and guilt. -<i>The New Yorker All too infrequently, a book comes along that's as daring as it is acclaimed. Art Spiegelman's <i>Maus </i>is just such a book. -<i>Esquire An epic story told in tiny pictures. -<i>The New York Times A remarkable work, awesome in its conception and execution... at one and the same time a novel, a documentary, a memoir, and a comic book. Brilliant, just brilliant. -Jules Feffer
