What are the central themes in Art Spiegelman's graphic novel, Maus?
* War
* Family
* Survival
* Journey
* Discrimination
* Guilt
* Despair
* Genocide - Holocaust - Camps
* Love
* Destruction
* Pain
* Betrayal
* Anger/grief - emotions that follow tragedy
* Loss
Now consider what Art Spiegelman is saying about the main themes (you should choose what you believe are the five most important ones) and how he is exploring them (i.e. what techniques is he using?).
The techniques you may wish to consider are: characterisation, language choices, artwork, colours, relationships/interactions between characters, sequencing of events and perspective.
