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.
