Récompensé par le prix Pulitzer, Maus nous conte l'histoire de Vladek ;.Spiegelman, rescapé de l'Europe d'Hitler, et de son fils, un dessinateur de bandes dessinées confronté au récit de son père. Au témoignage :bouleversant de Vladek se mêle un portrait de la relation tendue que l'auteur entretient avec son père vieillissant.

A tough but important work, and I'm glad that I finally read it. Unflinching is the adjective that keeps popping into my head when I think about the story. It was interesting to read this recent (2022) Atlantic article about the book and its continuing relevance.
