Art Spiegelman's "Maus: A Survivor's Tale" is the only graphic novel to have won the prestigious Pulitzer Prize.
The author managed the seemingly impossible—telling the story of the Holocaust in comic book form.
Vladek Spiegelman, Art's father, tells his son how he survived the ghetto, Auschwitz, and the "death march" to Dachau.
But "Maus" is also a deeply personal story, his attempt to process his complex relationship with his family.
At the intersection of these stories, a unique text is born, one that recounts one of the most horrific tragedies of the 20th century without simplification or pathos.
