From Hell by Eddie Campbell, Alan Moore

4.0

---

Though at times a bit difficult to navigate and keep track of who's who, this graphic novel was a fascinating look at the Jack the Ripper murders and London life and culture during 1888. I would definitely recommend keeping track of the notes in the appendices regarding each chapter as you read along, as it makes certain elements and inclusions make more sense (instead of like me, reading them at the end and having several things made clear in a delayed fashion). It's obvious how much work and research went into making the story as realistic as possible, and it adds an element of realism and tragedy.
