a while since my last read of this certain part of history This graphic novel was a good way to refresh my memory It s still very unsettling that the Nazis were this abusive back then The way they

second time around It s really wonderfully crafted, and I can t wait to finally read the second volume because this one ends sort of abruptly First read January 3 9, 2014When I was a kid I read comic books mostly Superman The Maus books are the only graphic novels I ve read and I consider them masterpieces Mausterpieces Like Spiegelman s alter ego, I was a middle class child growing up in Queens
