Maus II Part 1

I thought there were some very good questions brought up during the discussion but not all of them were answered and not all of them were answered fully enough. I'm not sure if this was because people did not know the answer to what was being asked or if they were afraid to add in their opinions of things. While I was reading I was confused by a lot of things and I had a lot of questions that came into my mind. It would have been helpful to have had some of those questions talked about but I felt like it was hard to discuss this book specifically because there are so many possible interpretations of each saying and picture. On the other hand, hearing how each person interpreted it differently would have helped get ideas about what was going on and why things were written and drawn the way they were. I found it really interesting how Spiegelman wove in parts of his present day life with the story of his parents time in Auschwitz. I also wondered what the significance of taking pages to explain things going on with his father and his current day life was.
