Comic Book Club: “Maus” by Art Spiegelman Saturday, December 7 at 10:30 a.m. (DeMayo room)

Join us for our next meeting of the Comic Book Club as we discuss “Maus” by Art Spiegelman. This Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel is widely acclaimed as one of the greatest in comic book history, described as “the most affecting and successful narrative ever done about the Holocaust.” “Maus” tells the haunting story of the author’s father’s experiences during the Holocaust, using poignant imagery with Jews represented as wide-eyed mice and Nazis as menacing cats. It interweaves a narrative of survival with the author’s complex relationship with his aging father, offering a powerful exploration of trauma and legacy. Don’t miss this impactful discussion!
