520 For Art Spiegelman, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of
Maus, the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 were
both highly personal and intensely political. In the
Shadow of No Towers, his first new book of comics since
the groundbreaking Maus, is a masterful and moving account
of the events and aftermath of that tragic day. Spiegelman
and his family bore witness to the attacks in their lower
Manhattan neighborhood: his teenage daughter had started
school directly below the towers days earlier, and they
had lived in the area for years. But the horrors they
survived that morning were only the beginning for
Spiegelman, as his anguish was quickly displaced by fury
at the U.S. government, which shamelessly co-opted the
events for its own preconceived agenda. He responded in
the way he knows best. In an oversized, two-page-spread
format that echoes the scale of the earliest newspaper
comics (which Spiegelman says brought him solace after the
attacks), he relates his experience of the national
tragedy in drawings and text that convey--with his
singular artistry and his characteristic provocation,
outrage, and wit--the unfathomable enormity of the event
itself, the obvious and insidious effects it had on his
life, and the extraordinary, often hidden changes that
have been enacted in the name of post-9/11 national
security and that have begun to undermine the very
foundation of American democracy.
