I looked at myself in the mirror and began to slightly move my eyebrows. I was in shock and screamed I could move my eyebrows!

In Maus II, Artie struggles with feelings of vulnerability and isolation. This is particularly notable in the scene above where he visits his psychiatrist. Drawn as a small mouse sitting in a chair that is far too big for him, Artie is barely able to make his outstretched legs reach the edge of the seat.1 This inability to rest his feet on the floor could suggest that he does not feel grounded in himself. Artie’s parents are now both dead, and grief may have caused him to feel severed from the…
