Art Spiegelman, legendary cartoonist, On Democracy Now, talks about the French massacre,

his book, "In the Shadow of No Towers", and cartooning in America.
He says the only publication in American which would publish his "No Towers" was The Daily Forward -
which I am trying to find online.
Fascinating talk. Guess I should have been an admirer of his a long time ago, but I wasn't.
He says as a youth he had his nose in Mad Magazine.
makes sense.

1. Spiegelman's an incredible artist. . .

The Jewish Daily Forward publishes some of the best analyses I've read in recent years. It can be found at forward.com.

I didn't know they'd published his No Towers. I have it at the side of my desk. It was a decent read. I keep it close because it's so big, and with a hardcover binding I can use it as a portable desk when my work space becomes too cluttered.

If you haven't read Spiegelman's Maus, I highly recommend it. I think only Tom Tomorrow packs as much into such a spare space. Maus won a Pulitzer in 1992.

2. Yes, they talked about Maus, and now I want to read that at well as No Towers...

Such an incredible person,
can't believe I've overlooked him all these years!
