Reviews

Holocaust Graphic Narratives offers a brilliant analysis of central, representative works that have appeared in the wake of Spiegelman's Maus and provides a vital way for us to re-envision the landscape of post-Holocaust testimony. --Eric Sundquist author of Strangers in the Land: Blacks, Jews, Post-Holocaust America Holocaust Graphic Novels is a gem. The author is a master of her subject, discussing the many contributions made by graphic Holocaust novels with great erudition. In Aarons' intelligent and insightful readings, the caesura induced by the Shoah continues to send intergenerational psychological shock waves. --Alan Berger author of Children of Job: American Second-Generation Witnesses to the Holocaust
