Correct answer: from a Jewish survivor’s perspective.
Explanation:
- Both works relate Holocaust events from the viewpoint of Jewish survivors: Wiesel’s All Rivers Run to the Sea is his own Holocaust memoir, and Spiegelman’s Maus recounts the experiences of his father, Vladek, a Holocaust survivor.
- They are not primarily in third person (both rely on first-person testimony/framing).
- They are not retellings of friends’ experiences.
- “Through the eyes of their fathers” applies to Maus (Vladek) but not to Wiesel, whose account is his own.
