Description
It is hard to overstate Art Spiegelman’s effect on postwar American culture. The Pulitzer Prize-winning author is one of the most influential contemporary artists, and his masterpiece Maus has shaped the fields of literature, history and art. Maus Now collects essays that confirm the work’s unique, terrain-shifting status, with writers including Philip Pullman, Robert Storr and Ruth Franklin approaching its complexity from a wide range of viewpoints and traditions. Edited by American literary scholar Hillary Chute, an expert on comics and graphic narratives, the collection also presents important French, Hebrew and German essays on Maus in translation for the first time, bringing together the world’s major writing on this classic work of graphic testimony.
