内容简介:
史上惟一获得过普利策奖的漫画作品。
当记忆陈旧的阀门被打开,显露的,仍是无法直面的黑暗…
中年漫画作家斯皮格曼生于二战后的美国,尽管声名显赫,却有着不为人道的沉郁往事。他被当做母亲自杀的罪魁,是永远超不过已故兄长的失败小弟,他和不近情理的父亲之间的隔膜犹如坚冰。然而在一个下午,父亲终于将紧锁多年的回忆敞开。就这样,我们随同老斯皮格曼跨越整个三四十年代,去经历追捕、逃亡、隔都、集中营……还有,人性的变迁。这不是一个人的经历,甚至也不是整个犹太民族的命运,而是全人类的伤。在无可抵抗的强权面前,人要么选择死亡,要么毁灭生活。
阿特·斯皮格曼,美国最深刻的漫画作家,独特的粗粝画风及冷凝的语言,使之成为先锋派漫画的代表,耗时八年完成的《鼠族》是其最富盛名的作品,并于1992年获普利策奖。这是一场无声的胜利,木版画般的黑白画面,吝于修辞的冷静语气,却塑造出最震撼人心的感动。
1986年和1991年,《鼠族》上下册出版,这部作品讲述了阿特父母从纳粹大屠杀中逃生的真实经历。作品极尽震撼地描述了一段真实的悲惨历史:作者身为波兰犹太人的父母在纳粹德国统治波兰期间,所遭受的非人待遇和想尽办法逃生的悲惨经历,揭露了纳粹大屠杀的罪行。扣人心弦的故事,围绕阿特和他父亲令人神伤的关系展开。漫画笔触朴实,没有任何刻意营造的效果,但人物的心理纤毫毕现。语言平和、冷静,节奏张弛有度,然而这种回首过去的沧桑感却令人不寒而栗。图画中蕴含着强大的叙事潜力,意味深长,犹太人被描画成鼠,而德国人(纳粹)和波兰人则被描画成猫和猪,以拟人化动物为主角来表现沉重历史题材的做法,在当时引起了极大的轰动。这种用通俗的漫画形式表现沉重战争主题的独特风格使《鼠族》获得了极大的成功,迄今为止,这部漫画在美国的销售量已达1800万本。
1992年,漫画小说《鼠族》获普利策大奖,从而大大提高了连环漫画在公众视野中的地位,他本人也成为备受人们赞赏的尊敬的作家、艺术家。《鼠族》给作者带来的荣誉还有:古根海姆研究员基金,全国书评家提名奖。
Amazon.com Review
Some historical events simply beggar any attempt at description--the Holocaust is one of these. Therefore, as it recedes and the people able to bear witness die, it becomes more and more essential that novel, vigorous methods are used to describe the indescribable. Examined in these terms, Art Spiegelman's Maus is a tremendous achievement, from a historical perspective as well as an artistic one.
Spiegelman, a stalwart of the underground comics scene of the 1960s and '70s, interviewed his father, Vladek, a Holocaust survivor living outside New York City, about his experiences. The artist then deftly translated that story into a graphic novel. By portraying a true story of the Holocaust in comic form--the Jews are mice, the Germans cats, the Poles pigs, the French frogs, and the Americans dogs--Spiegelman compels the reader to imagine the action, to fill in the blanks that are so often shied away from. Reading Maus, you are forced to examine the Holocaust anew.
This is neither easy nor pleasant. However, Vladek Spiegelman and his wife Anna are resourceful heroes, and enough acts of kindness and decency appear in the tale to spur the reader onward (we also know that the protagonists survive, else reading would be too painful). This first volume introduces Vladek as a happy young man on the make in pre-war Poland. With outside events growing ever more ominous, we watch his marriage to Anna, his enlistment in the Polish army after the outbreak of hostilities, his and Anna's life in the ghetto, and then their flight into hiding as the Final Solution is put into effect. The ending is stark and terrible, but the worst is yet to come--in the second volume of this Pulitzer Prize-winning set. --Michael Gerber
