The German revolution on the 1st of May 1929, that's the point of this book.
A couple hundred pages just clearing the situatio for the readers to immerse themselves through the lovable characters into the conflict.
I've thoroughly enjoyed Lute's writing and above all its way of detaching the characters emotion through the illustration. The relationships between the characters are relatable (even if Marthe and Kurt's age gap is quite disturbing), and the author portraits diverse characters of every social stage.
I would recommend this graphic novel to anyone interested either in graphic novels or modern history.
I'm looking forward to reading the second volume as soon as I get to the library.
