Maus Art Spiegelman Rare Hard Cover Box Set Graphic Novel Books I & II Pantheon

Maus Art Spiegelman Rare Hard Cover Box Set Volumes I & II Pantheon Edition 1992 Pulitzer Prize Winner “A brutally moving work of art” - The Boston Globe This is a pre-owned set of Art Spiegelman's "Maus" Books I & II graphic novels. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1992, the books are the cartoonist’s way of coming to terms with his father’s story of surviving the Holocaust. Taking the horrors of World War II and its consequent history into the format of graphic novels, with Jews depicted as mice and Nazis as cats, Maus “succeeds perfectly in shocking us out of any lingering familiarity with the events described, approaching, as it does, the unspeakable through the diminutive.” The books feature illustrated covers with bold titles. The pages contain stark black and white graphics. The books are in excellent condition with only minor wear to spine edges. The hard box cover is in good condition with light wear visible.
