Summary/Abstract: This study will focus on identifying the most effective narrative techniques used by Art Spiegelman in his graphic novel Maus, begun in 1973 and completed in 1991, and analyzing them from a literary theorist’s perspective. Up to a certain point, they will be separated from the visual techniques that enable the reader to understand Spiegelman’s dramatic account of the Holocaust in World War Two.
