A review by laurenemma
The Danish Girl by David Ebershoff

5.0

This book was so well written, which made it a really easy and enjoyable read. The link between art and finding yourself was well captured. It was nice to read about a subject I didn't really know anything about, and although the majority of this is fictional Ebershoff did a brilliant job of portraying a difficult transition. My only criticism is that the storyline does become slightly idealistic after Lilli's first operations, and I feel she's a bit inconsiderate to Greta's feelings. Overall though I would really recommend this book and I really want to see the film now.
