I read these back in high school. Art Spiegelman does an amazing job of conveying the story of the concentration camps. The book is extremely moving, and Spiegelman's art is well-suited to what he's trying to create.

A very powerful read. I just can't imagine how hard these people's lives were during WWII.

As expected, powerful and upsetting. Wasn't expecting the set-up of talking with the father and the experience of documenting these stories to be such a vital part of the story. Fascinating stuff. Content warning for suicide, war crimes, etc. Jeez, any time kids appear in this story...
Ending is quite a cliffhanger, but at least there's another book.
