The narrative explores the profound impact of the September 11 attacks on individuals, particularly focusing on Art Spiegelman, a lifelong New Yorker who experienced the tragedy firsthand. His autobiographical comic, "In the Shadow of No Towers," serves as a means for him to process his trauma and emotions stemming from that day. Spiegelman describes the work as a diary fragment, illustrating his struggle to cope with the horror and chaos that enveloped New York, reflecting a broader theme of personal and collective trauma in the aftermath of the attacks.
