After Midnight by Irmgard Keun

5.0

After Midnight took me a bit longer than I expected for a short read. That's not a bad thing, though. There is so much to absorb in this narrative. You must take into consideration that, although she may have been writing this as fiction, she definitely was writing from her own experiences of dealing with the Nazis' rise to power and the effect of it on her every day life. Absolutely 100% recommend.
