by Art Spiegelman In his first graphic novel since the groundbreaking Maus, Art Spiegelman presents a deeply personal, politically charged, and graphically emotionally stunning account of the events and aftermath of September 11th, 2001. In a large, 2-page-spread format, Spiegelman relates his experience of the national tragedy in drawings and text that convey the unfathomable enormity of the event itself, the obvious and insidious effects it had on his life, and the extraordinary, often hidden changes that have been enacted in the name of post-9/11 national security and that have begun to undermine the very foundation of American democracy. Also, Spiegelman shares a small folio of classic Sunday comics pages from the early years that resonate eerily today. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Art Spiegelman It is the story of Vladek Spiegelman, a Jewish survivor of Hitler's Europe, and his son, a cartoonist coming to terms with his father's story. Maus approaches the unspeakable through the diminutive. Its form, the cartoon (the Nazis are cats, the Jews mice), shocks us out of any lingering sense of familiarity. Maus is a haunting tale within a tale. Vladek's harrowing story of survival is woven into the author's account of his tortured relationship with his aging father. Against the backdrop of guilt brought by survival, they stage a normal life of small arguments and unhappy visits. This astonishing retelling of the 20th century's grisliest news is a story of survival, not only of Vladek but of the children who survive even the survivors. Maus studies the bloody pawprints of history and tracks its meaning for all of us. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
