Maus II

Maus II has many instances in which Art obviously adopts some of Vladek traumas from the holocaust. Hearing his father retell the story allows Art to envision the events his father experienced. In one instance Art talks about feeling inferior to Richieu. Art believes that his parents picture Richieu as growing up to be everything they wanted and Artie could never live up to that. There is also one part where Vladek tell Francoise Artie inherited the Anja's depression and nervous behavior. A graphic novel allows for the story to be told in a different light.
