A review by libwinnie
The Danish Girl by David Ebershoff

4.0

This breath-taking novel may be a fictionalized account of the life of one of the first gender reassignment patients in history, but it is really about strength of character, being true to oneself and ultimately the love that binds friends and family. Taking place in Copenhagen in the late 1920's, it interweaves art, marriage and family history into the story.
