Maus: In Conversation

The Pulitzer Prize-winning Maus tells 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.

It is a haunting tale within a tale. One thread follows Vladek’s testimony: a harrowing account of life in occupied Poland, delivered to his son through a series of recorded conversations. The other unfolds decades later, as Art confronts the emotional weight of turning his father’s memories into a book.

Few graphic novels are as universally read or discussed as Maus. Join us this Saturday for the first meeting of The Revolver Book Club as we discuss this groundbreaking graphic novel.
