Guardian Newspaper 1000 Novels discussion

In March we will be reading The Complete Maus by Art Spiegelman for our War & Travel category - who's in?

I own the set but haven’t read them since college. Very timely for a reread with Maus being banned in a Tennessee school district just recently. Apparently the harm of exposure to mouse nudity outweighs the benefits of remembrance and shared humanity.
Read Banned Books

I couldn't find an available copy of the Complete Maus (see Jenny's message above), but I finally tracked down Maus I and Maus II.

Finished Maus I and Maus II = Complete Maus (5 stars)

I have the two parts as separate editions, and thought they were both excellent, especially part 1
ironically, if it were up to me, I would make these required reading in schools!

I agree! I loved it! I think kids would be particularly attracted to this format and learn a lot more from it than any regular history book!
Also, I notice, since the book has been banned, it is showing up everywhere! I'm sure it's getting much more attention now that some are trying to keep it from being read ;)
