THE DEFINITIVE EDITION: The Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel acclaimed as the most
affecting and successful narrative ever done about the Holocaust (Wall Street Journal) and the
first masterpiece in comic book history (The New Yorker). A brutally moving work of art-widely
hailed as the greatest graphic novel ever written-Maus recounts the chilling experiences of the
author's father during the Holocaust with Jews drawn as wide-eyed mice and Nazis as menacing
cats. Maus is a haunting tale within a tale weaving the author's account of his tortured
relationship with his aging father into an astonishing retelling of one of history's most
unspeakable tragedies. It is an unforgettable story of survival and a disarming look at the
legacy of trauma.
