Review: A legendary must read book - A legendary and iconic graphic novel. This is an important and must read biographical story. Wonderfully illustrated, simple and too the point.
Review: Superb Tale telling! - I am a student of the Holocaust, having heard my dad tell of his role in liberating the camps when he was in the US army medical corps as they swept through the devastation of Germany and Poland as the Nazis were being defeated. I am also a native Tennessean, embarrassed and angered by a certain Tennessee school board for banning this hook. But had they not done that, I might never have read it! I didn’t think I would be a fan of a ‘cartoon’ book. Was I ever wrong! The tale of Nazi hatred of the Jews is exactly that told in many another history, detailing the horror and inhumanity of the outrageous purge of an entire people. My father was a photographer, too, and as a young boy in 1950s Tennessee I discovered his photo albums: the gas chambers, the ovens, the stacks of bodies, the surviving living skeletons in striped pyjamas. He sat me down and explained it in terms a young boy like me might understand. I went on to become a teacher, and was glad to lead units of study of the Holocaust to middle and high school students, and to lead visits to Auschwitz and Terezin so that we could see for ourselves what inhumanity could and did do. This prize-winning book is beautifully arranged, easy to follow, and non-putdownable. It so wonderfully portrays the lives and deaths of the unfortunate victims of Nazism. That a Tennessee school board could ban this book because of one drawing or one phrase expressing outrage at Nazi behaviour simply shows their ignorant rightwing lack of empathy. Yet, their actions have had a good result in making more people buy and read the book, people like me. Hopefully people like you. The world is not rid of racial prejudice, intolerance, religious bigotry, warfare…MAUS needs to be read as a history lesson that teaches us today that it could happen again, as it might be in Ukraine now, and in other places where intolerance and self-righteousness lead people into acts of deprivation and pain. This book is essential reading.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unique, graphic account of the Holocaust
*by C***4 on 6 January 2026*

This book, which transformed the graphic novel genre, sheds a deeply personal light on the horrors of the Holocaust, as experienced by the author's father, Vladek. Vladek survives the Holocaust through a combination of sheer luck and his entrepreneurial capacity to wheel and deal his way out of trouble. But survivor's guilt and trauma turn him into an irascible and tormented old man, testing the patience of his son who sets out to record his experiences. The horror and insanity of the Holocaust are graphically described, and this book should be essential reading for all young people trying to understand what happened - it is a great shame that some libraries in the US have been denied permission to stock this remarkable and important book.
