We’ll start on Tuesday with a close look at the prologue
and look at the narrative structure of these two pages about Anja’s and Vladek’s trip to the sanatorium
Then move on to any other pages and panels you’d like to discuss.
(Barbara or I might add a few other pages here that we’d like to focus on. So check back to this page before Tuesday evening.)
Have a look at these interviews with Art Spiegelman. Time for this is about 90 minutes if you watch everything. Try to see one early interview and one more recent, book-ban response interview.
