A review by cha
Copenhagen by Michael Frayn

dark emotional mysterious reflective tense fast-paced

4.0

I really think this book did the best it could with the canon material it had. It's essentially a fanfiction in play format, and it's a good one, too. It was also a really fast read, and super digestible. I read this as part of a physics class about the topics discussed, so I don't know how challenging the more scientific material might be for someone who didn't learn the things I did this past semester, but I like to think they really do explain it all in "plain words," as they kept reiterating in the play. It's not something I would've read on my own, but it's not bad at all. (I didn't really read the notes after the play, so I really only consumed the two acts of the play itself; I can't speak on that section of the book.)
