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 found myself having a difficult time with the father son relationship. Both Flawed and traumatized people for obvious reasons. Found myself wishing that the focus was more heavily focused on the fathers retelling of events rather than the fallout from a damaged person raising a child. I supposed illuminating the generational effects of trauma is important, but had a hard time resonating with or feeling much empathy for the son.
