"An eloquent and vigorous protest against war’s horror and futility."
(The New York Times, from an exhibition review of The Parade, 1953)
"Nothing can equal the psychological effect of real art . . .Our time needs you and your work!"
(Albert Einstein, from a letter to Si Lewen, 1951)
"The Parade is a powerfully moving free-jazz dirge of a book that depicts mankind’s recurring war fever. It remains sadly urgent and relevant today."
(Art Spiegelman, from his introduction)
