Maus

from Wikipedia.org Maus: A Survivor’s Tale is a memoir presented as a graphic novel by Art Spiegelman. It recounts Spiegelman’s father’s struggle to survive the Holocaust as a Polish Jew and draws largely on his father’s recollections of events he personally experienced. The book also follows the author’s troubled relationship with his father and the way the effects of war reverberate through generations of a family. In 1992 it won a Pulitzer Prize Special Award. The New York Times described the selection of Maus for the honor: “The Pulitzer board members … found the cartoonist’s depiction of Nazi Germany hard to classify.”
