Tonight on Brook Reading, I conclude my review of the complete series, Maus, as I cover Part 2 - A Survivor’s Tale - And Here My Troubles Began, by Art Spiegelman. These episodes have been a whirlwind, fraught with emotions, as I haven’t been able to put the book down. I hope you go out there and get yourself a copy somehow, buy it, borrow it, read the PDF (which will AGAIN be posted on the website this week), share amongst friends, and if you ARE a parent or educator, share it with your children. Have the difficult conversations, not about swear words and “mild nudity”, but about the importance of studying our history so we DO NOT REPEAT IT! Please visit the website, www.brookreadingpodcast.com, to find the PDF of Maus, Pt. 2 and, as always, Happy Reading.

Stop Censorship. Read Banned Books. Educate yourselves and your children. We all must do our part.
