Review: Julius Caeser
Julius Caeser (by Shakespeare) = 3/5 I'm pretty tired, so this will be short.

Review: Maus
Maus = 5/5 Art Spiegelman's graphic novel treatment of the Holocaust is masterfully done, and I'm sorry it took me so long to read this duology/book; it was near-impossible to put down. Maus is a visual biography about Spiegelman's father's experiences as a Jew trying to survive the Holocaust in Poland. It mixes the biography … Continue reading Review: Maus
