Maus-Night Blogging Assignment

In the same way that we discussed how Fallen Angels and Restrepo complemented each other, reflect on how Maus and Night serve as companion pieces. Look for emotional, thematic and literary connections that go beyond superficial similarities (e.g., both are about the Holocaust), and be sure to cite specific examples from both works as you progress towards a recommendation of whether classes should read one or the other or both. This blog must be posted by Mon, March 28.
This blog entry is worth points 15 points:
____ / 3 - thoughtful observations about both books
____ / 3 - specific citation of examples from both books
____ / 3 - a well-argued recommendation
____ / 3 - quality of writing
____ / 3 - overall effectiveness
