it was amazing
bookshelves: graphic-novels-comics-manga, war

And thus the tale is complete.

In this second volume the meta-level is even more prominent as Spiegelman’s struggle with putting his father’s tale to paper becomes an important part of the narrative.

It’s called A Survivor’s Tale though. And Vladek Spiegelman’s story is still the focal point.

The narrative moves forward to his time in Auschwitz. And no matter how often I read or see something about Auschwitz it never ceases to deeply affect me. It’s hard to understand what despicable things human beings are capable of. But sadly it is also very real and should never be forgotten.

Ultimately this book is not only about surviving the Holocaust, but also about coming to terms with life afterwards. The struggle of Vladek Spiegelman and also that of his son, the author of this book, is very palpable.

A deeply moving tale. And winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1992. Well deserved!
