[A] must read graphic novel!" —Books and Books Only"Salvia Rubio does an amazing job with the storytelling, layering in historical details, while captivating you with a dynamic plotline. I read this novel in one sitting...I genuinely cared about the characters and cried for them throughout the novel. Also, I am appreciative of the way the illustrations tell the story. If you like historical fiction, you'll love this book. It has everything: stunning illustrations, a deep plotline, historical significance...everything you could want." —Travel Through Fiction"I was not familiar with Francisco Boix's story before picking up The Photographer of Mauthausen, but the graphic novel struck such chords that I doubt I will ever forget it. The book offers insight into the lives of Mauthausen's political prisoners and the protocols designed to exterminate them through hard labor. The artistry of the panels chronicles these realities, and ... I appreciate the care and dedicated resolve Rubio, Colombo, and Landa exhibit in their handling of the material...I am drawn to themes when reading, and more than once lost myself in the ideas this story provoked. I was intrigued by the manufacture of visual propaganda as explored in the early portion of the novel, but I was also moved by the narrative's approach to the transformative effects of desperation, survivor guilt, and the question of how to chronicle experience to individuals who did not share in it…. Highly recommended." —Historical Fiction Reader"Moving and suspenseful, The Photographer of Mauthausen is a based-in truth story of survival in a Nazi concentration camp [woven] into a taut, gripping thriller [and] an inspiring historical graphic novel whose visionary hero persists in the face of incredible adversity." —Foreword Reviews, Starred Review
