    After twenty-five years, Art Spiegelman gathers his thoughts about his prize-winning, ground-breaking graphic novel, MetaMaus (Pantheon). He talks about the difficulty of treating the Holocaust in comic form and the structure of memory that unifies the whole work.

    MetaMaus includes a bonus two-part DVD that provides a digitized reference copy of MAUS books with linked audio and visual files, as well as a large archive of supplementary documents, sources and commentary.
