Get it if you haven't read it …

As a Graphic Novel fan I often re-read the major writings/drawings and look at pictures with their details and, often, discover something new or worth looking at again. Of late, I was re-reading Maus and came across this panel …


It reminded me of my own Breakfast list of Tablets I have to take, given my Prostrate problems, my old Diabetes, a heart attack that you could read about here, and - a little later - a Pacemaker.


You haven't read Maus?

It's the best book about the Holocaust, drawn (and written) by Art Spiegelman, whose father Vladek Spiegelman was a survivor.

It shows the Jews as Mice and the Hitler Gang as Cats.


Maus has won several awards and is considered among the top Graphic Novels. He has also done a lengthy book, called MetaMaus (which includes a CD) that I have … and I've loved it, too. Art was known before this for Raw and his works that were published in several leading Newspapers and Magazines..



Here are some pieces from Maus





GO! GO! GO!
