## Description

desertcart.com: MetaMaus: A Look Inside a Modern Classic, Maus: 9780375423949: Spiegelman, Art: Books

Review: An essential primer for an essential book - The bulk of the book is comprised of interviews with Art Spiegelman. In these interviews, he discusses how the book was made, what inspired his art, and why he made major creative decisions. Getting an in depth breakdown of Maus is fascinating enough, but like the work itself, it is colored by what Maus depicts, both as a historical work and a personal story. Moreover, the book also let me know what Spiegelman is like, and he is quite the conversationalist. There are little detours into other aspects. I found the interview with Spiegelman's wife to be particularly affecting, because she provides a whole new perspective on Vladek that leads to an extremely poignant anecdote. The book is chock full of panels, sketches, studies and other pictures relevant to the story of telling the story. The only part that could have been improved is the transcript of the first interview with Vladek -- the print is simply too small. This transcript, and others, are on the DVD, which I've just delved into. So far, I haven't experienced some of the problems others have had, but I would agree that having the DVD insert in the front cover is better in concept that in execution. But the flaws are minor, and should not detract from this welcome addition to the Maus canon.
Review: Cool - Great book!

Great book!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Documentary
*by H***T on April 19, 2023*

Meta Maus Is a great inside luck to the novels. It is full of questions that you might have and full of questions that you never would’ve thought off and the answers flow from them. It takes in other family members other than Art himself. It speaks of how and where this novel came from. It is a worthwhile read.
