书籍简介

这部作品讲述了阿特父母从纳粹中逃生的真实经历。作品极尽震撼地描述了一段真实的悲惨历史：作者身为波兰犹太人的父母在纳粹德国统治波兰期间，所遭受的非人待遇和想尽办法逃生的悲惨经历，揭露了纳粹的罪行。扣人心弦的故事，围绕阿特和他父亲令人神伤的关系展开。漫画笔触朴实，没有任何刻意营造的效果，但人物的心理纤毫毕现。语言平和、冷静，节奏张弛有度，然而这种回首过去的沧桑感却令人不寒而栗。图画中蕴含着强大的叙事潜力，意味深长，犹太人被描画成鼠，而德国人（纳粹）和波兰人则被描画成猫和猪，以拟人化动物为主角来表现沉重历史题材的做法，在当时引起了极大的轰动。这种用通俗的漫画形式表现沉重战争主题的独特风格使《鼠族》获得了极大的成功，迄今为止，这部漫画在美国的销售量已达1800万本。

The Pulitzer Prize-winning Maus tells the story of Vladek Spiegelman, asurvivor of Hitler’s Europe, and his son, a cartoonist coming to terms with his father’s story. Maus approaches the unspeakable through the diminutive. Its form, the cartoon (the Nazis are cats, the Jews mice), shocks us out of any lingering sense of familiarity and succeeds in “drawing us closer to the bleak heart of the Holocaust” (The New York Times).

Maus is a haunting tale within a tale. Vladek’s harrowing story of survival is woven into the author’s account of his tortured relationship with his aging father. Against the backdrop of guilt brought by survival, they stage a normal life of small arguments and unhappy visits. This astonishing retelling of our century’s grisliest news is a story of survival, not only of Vladek but of the children who survive even the survivors. Maus studies the bloody pawprints of history and tracks its meaning for all of us.
