mamasquirrel 's review for:

The Danish Girl by David Ebershoff
4.0

Well-written, especially for a first novel. Ebershoff has compassion for all his characters, making no one the villain in the situation. Greta's grief and sense of loss at the "death" of Einar felt true. I also really liked the contrast between the landscapes--the two in Denmark as well as Paris, California, and Dresden.
