17:20 METAPHORS are not welcome if they show mice as Jews and cats as Nazis. | |
| A school board in Tennessee has banned a Pulitzer prize-winning novel about the Holocaust from being taught in its classrooms. Board members voted in favour of banning the novel because it contained swear words and a naked illustration. The graphic novel Maus: A Survivor's Tale depicts how the author's parents survived Auschwitz during the Holocaust. Author Art Spiegelman said he was "baffled" by the decision. Six million Jewish people died in the Holocaust - Nazi Germany's campaign to eradicate Europe's Jewish population. Mr Spiegelman's parents were Polish Jews who were sent to Nazi concentration camps during World War Two. His novel Maus, which features hand-drawn illustrations of mice as Jews and cats as Nazis, won a number of literary awards in 1992. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-60153696 | |
