dark emotional informative sad tense medium-paced

5.0

Maus, indiscutivelmente é uma obra densa, que termina com aquele peso no estômago. Ler um recorte de uma vida que passou por tudo isso, é fatigante, parece que li por meses, acompanhando tudo que está retratado.
A escolha de usar quadrinhos como estilo de narração, foi incrível. O recurso de serem animais, foi genial. A tradução está ótima, mantendo características oratórias.
Não dá pra "gostar" de uma história assim, mas é sem dúvida uma obra excelente.

I don’t think anyone could ever rate this book as less than five stars. It has completely changed so many peoples lives and given such an insight into the life of a survivor of the Holocaust. As well as the life of the descendants that come after. It was very impactful to read again after so long. I highly recommend everyone read this book at least once if not multiple times throughout their life. It really helps to gain perspective and remember what all people are capable of if we are not careful.
