🥒 reviewed Maus I, My Father Bleeds History by Art Spiegelman
The Way My English Teacher Looked Like She Wanted to Murder Me When I called this a Comic. Yes it is a Comic. A Graphic Novel is a Type of Comic. I Will Die on this Hill.
4 stars
Read this in high school. By far one of the best books I've ever been forced to read for English class. Spiegelman's art (Badum! Tiss!), deceptively simple, conveys the tragedy of the Holocaust and the absurdity of genocide so much more effectively than any photograph or live-action film could.
