I first received a copy of MAUS in high school back in the 90s. My mom knew I liked comics and I guess she heard this was good or something. She doesn't even remember giving me it, but it legitimately changed my view of what could be done with comics as a medium.

That said, it's an incredibly personal look into one man grappling with his father's history with the Holocaust, his relationship with both that and his own father, and the imperfections found everywhere in those wrought relationships.

I wanted to read a Graphic Novel and my partner told me about this one. It’s really good! But it’s sad. I caught myself in tears in many moments while I was reading. It’s not an easy topic (Nazism and the story of a Polish Jew who survived Auschwitz concentration camp). Extremely touching. We cant’ forget this horror as to not repeat it again, ever.
