A richly illustrated book in which leading cultural critics,
authors, and academics reflect on the radical achievement and
innovation of Art Spiegelman's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece
Maus 'The most affecting and successful narrative ever done about
the Holocaust' Wall Street Journal
___________________________________________________________________________
It is hard to overstate Art Spiegelman's effect on postwar American
culture. The Pulitzer Prize-winning author is one of our most
influential contemporary artists, and his masterpiece Maus has
shaped the fields of literature, history, and art. Collecting
responses to the work that confirm its unique and terrain-shifting
status, Maus Now is a new collection of essays that sees writers
such as Philip Pullman, Robert Storr, Ruth Franklin, and others
approaching the complexity of Maus from a wide range of viewpoints
and traditions. Offering translations of important French, Hebrew,
and German essays on Maus for the first time, this collection
edited by American literary scholar Hillary Chute - an expert on
comics and graphic narratives - assembles the world's best writing
on this classic work of graphic testimony.

'The first masterpiece in comic book history' The New Yorker on
Maus 'No summary can do justice to Spiegelman's narrative skill'
Adam Gopnik on Maus 'Like all great stories, it tells us more about
ourselves than we could ever suspect' Philip Pullman on Maus
