Discuss Art’s portrayal of his father. Is it a fair portrayal? What feelings does Art have about this portrayal?

He is worried about how he is portraying his father in Maus, that in some ways, he has drawn him as a stereotypical, miserly, racist Jew.

Should he worry? That would depend on how sensitive his father is about the issue. From what we read in the novel, Vladek has reasons for how he feels about money. Who is anyone else to judge?
