This unusual book was first published in 1973 under the title "Maus: A Survivor's Tale." In 1991, this was followed "Maus II: And Here my Troubles Began." This is one of a kind essential reading. Do you agree ? Peter Kubicek

Ville-Markus Nevalainen I do believe that Maus is something that everyone should read - the way it explores the holocaust is so real. It being a graphic novel and having animal characters might push some people away at first, but these elements are what truly create the story.

However, would like to point out that your dates are wrong. Part one was published 1986, part two 1991. It won the Pulitzer in 1992 and the complete edition was published in 1997. (Though these details do not matter that much.)
Vanita Absolutely! Without too many details, this books makes the horrors people had to endure come to life.
Elizabeth Yes, for a plethora of reasons! Just saw this post and will come back to write why I feel this is, "...one of a kind essential reading."
