Des portes d'Auschwitz aux trottoirs de New York se déroule en deux temps (les années 30 et les années 70) le récit d'une double survie : celle du père, mais aussi celle du fils, qui se débat pour survivre au survivant. Ici, les Nazis sont des chats et les Juifs des souris.

Introductory Essay by Art Spiegelman Commentary by Richard Merkin ABOVEGROUND FOR THE FIRST TIME As wry and raunchy as the subject it celebrates, this inspired volume introduces a new generation to the Tijuana Bibles, underground comic art form the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s devoted to making sexual mockery of every sacred cow in the pasture. Folk art with a subversive edge, the Bibles are unveiled here with a hundred life-size reproductions.
Le prodigieux destin d'un enfant pas comme les autres dans une Amérique aux étranges facettes.
Pulitzer Prize-winning author Art Spiegelman is one of our most influential contemporary artists, and it is hard to overstate his effect on postwar American culture and the world of comics. Maus has shaped the fields of literature, history, and art, and enlivened our collective sense of what these practices can accomplish. Collecting responses to the work that confirm its unique and terrain-shifting status, Maus Now sees writers such as Philip Pullman, Adam Gopnik, Ruth Franklin, and others approaching the complexity of Maus from a wide range of viewpoints and traditions. Organized into three loosely chronological sections ("Contexts", "Problems of Representation" and "Legacy"), the book offers translations of important French, Hebrew, and German essays on Maus for the first time. Maus is revelatory, and generative, in profound and long-lasting ways. With this collection, American literary scholar (and expert on comics and graphic narratives) Hillary Chute assembles the best work around the globe exploring this classic graphic biography.
The creator of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Maus explores the comics form ... and how it formed him! This book opens with Portrait of the Artist as a Young %@&*!, creating vignettes of the people, events, and comics that shaped Art Spiegelman. It traces the artist's evolution from a MAD-comics obsessed boy in Rego Park, Queens, to a neurotic adult examining the effect of his parents' memories of Auschwitz on his own son. The second part presents a facsimile of Breakdowns, the long-sought after collection of the artist's comics of the 1970s, the book that triggers these memories. Breakdowns established the mode of formally sophisticated comics that transformed the medium, and includes the prototype of Maus, cubist experiments, an essay on humor, and the definitive genre-twisting pulp story "Ace Hole-Midget Detective." Pulling all this together is an illustrated essay that looks back at the sixties as the artist pushes sixty, and explains the obsessions that brought these works into being. Poignant, funny, complex, and innovative, Breakdowns alters the terms of what can be accomplished in a memoir.
For Art Spiegelman, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Maus, the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 were both highly personal and intensely political. In the Shadow of No Towers, his first new book of comics since the groundbreaking Maus, is a masterful and moving account of the events and aftermath of that tragic day. Spiegelman and his family bore witness to the attacks in their lower Manhattan neighborhood: his teenage daughter had started school directly below the towers days earlier, and they had lived in the area for years. But the horrors they survived that morning were only the beginning for Spiegelman, as his anguish was quickly displaced by fury at the U.S. government, which shamelessly co-opted the events for its own preconceived agenda. He responded in the way he knows best. In an oversized, two-page-spread format that echoes the scale of the earliest newspaper comics (which Spiegelman says brought him solace after the attacks), he relates his experience of the national tragedy in drawings and text that convey--with his singular artistry and his characteristic provocation, outrage, and wit--the unfathomable enormity of the event itself, the obvious and insidious effects it had on his life, and the extraordinary, often hidden changes that have been enacted in the name of post-9/11 national security and that have begun to undermine the very foundation of American democracy
Imagine what a dictionary might look like about thirty years hence, when all of the world's problems are solved and our current dictionaries are a distant memory.

Think of it as a dictionary of language for describing what the future could look like a dictionary that is both useful and romantic, hopeful and necessary, pragmatic and idealistic, and frequently funny. This is science fiction but with a difference.

Maus narra la historia de Vladek Spiegelman, un judío polaco que sobrevivió al Holocausto, a través de su hijo Art, un dibujante de cómics. Con un enfoque innovador, utiliza la memoria gráfica para explorar el sufrimiento y sus consecuencias en las generaciones posteriores, fusionando tragedia y comedia en una obra única.
"La verdad es que Maus es un libro que uno no puede dejar, ni siquiera para dormir. Cuando dos de los ratones hablan de amor, te conmueve; cuando sufren, lloras. Poco a poco, a través de este relato compuesto de sufrimeinto, humor y los desafíos cotidianos de la vida, uno queda atrapado por el lenguaje de una antigua familia del Este de Europa y es arrastrado por su ritmo suave e hipnótico. Y cuando uno acaba Maus, se siente triste por haber abandonado ese mundo mágico..." -Umberto Eco

Der neugierige kleine Hund verirrt sich bei der Kaninchenjagd im Wald. Er findet Unterschlupf bei einer Hexe ...
Maus je příběh Vladka Spiegelmana, Žida, který přežil holocaust, a jeho syna, kreslíře, který se snaží vyrovnat s otcem, jeho hrozivým příběhem i dějinami jako takovými. Knihu spojuje dva příběhy: jeden se odehrává v Polsku, druhý v Rego Parku v New Yorku. V prvním Spiegelmanův otec vypráví o tom, jak se svou ženou přežili Hitlerovu vládu v Evropě. Je to příběh plný smrti, neuvěřitelných úniků, vězeňské krutosti i lidské zrady. V druhém příběhu sledujeme autorův mučivý vztah k stárnoucímu otci. Občas se navštěvují, vedou malicherné hádky a v pozadí všeho jsou dějiny, příliš kruté na to, aby je bylo možno utišit. Obě příběhy se tak před námi spojují v příběh jediný - příběh rodičů a dětí. V prvním dílu sledujeme Spiegelmanovy rodiče až do bran Osvětimi a autora vyprávění na práh zoufalství.
