Helpful Score: 3

This book is a graphic novel. It is written by Art Spiegelman as he interviews his Jewish father's experiences in Nazi Germany. The Jews are mice, the Germans are cats, and the Poles are pigs. The story is compelling, and is made less revolting, (If that is possible) by the de-humanizing, (pictorially) of the groups. It is an easy, quick read, but it will have great impact. For those who want to understand the holocaust and don't want to slog through some of the many long volumns out there...pick this one up.
