Metamaus: A Look Inside a Modern Classic, Maus [With CDROM]

By Art Spiegelman

Book Overview

NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD WINNER * Visually and emotionally rich, MetaMaus is as groundbreaking as the masterpiece whose creation it reveals. In the pages of MetaMaus , Art Spiegelman re-enters the Pulitzer prize-winning Maus , the modern classic that has altered how we see literature, comics, and the Holocaust ever since it was first published twenty-five years ago. He probes the questions that Maus most often evokes--Why the Holocaust? Why mice? Why comics?--and gives us a new and essential work about the creative process. Compelling and intimate, MetaMaus is poised to become a classic in its own right.
