Essay on Maus Elizabeth Gilbert says “Your emotions are the slaves to your thoughts, and you are the slave to your emotions.” Art Spieglman’s graphic novel Maus looks at how guilt affects Artie.

According to Paul, Paul and his friends are, “forlorn like children, and experienced like old men, we are crude and sorrowful and superficial - [I believe we are lost]” (123). Being drafted in the war at the age of eighteen has changed the mental thoughts of Paul as the transitions from a teenager to adult is quickly hastened and heavily weighted on him due to the war. The physical age of Paul is disconnected to how he mentally is, which is having the mind like old men, and in the struggle of how old Paul actually is versus how old he mentally is demonstrates how Paul has been mentally affected by the war. While Paul is in the hospital, he reflects how he is, “[I] am young, [I] am twenty years old; yet [I] know nothing of life but despair, death, fear, and fatuous superficiality cast over an abyss of sorrow” (263). For Paul to think that he only knows what “despair, death, fear, and fatuous superficiality” is at the age of twenty demonstrates how Paul is mentality affected by the war, as most teenagers do not think about such things.
