The most affecting and successful narrative ever done about the Holocaust. <i><i> The </i>Wall Street Journal The first masterpiece in comic book history. <i> The New Yorker</i> 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><i> </i>The New Republic A quiet triumph, moving and simple impossible to describe accurately, and impossible to achieve in any medium but comics. <i> The 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><i> </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><i> </i>Esquire An epic story told in tiny pictures. <i><i> </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. <i> </i>Jules Feffer
