A review by lunchlander
Berlin by Jason Lutes

3.0

An undeniably beautiful, well-researched and fascinating read that I had trouble plugging into. There are a lot of characters, and they all look somewhat similar, and I had trouble following every story in every detail, especially with cursive font choices such as the one used for Marthe’s thoughts, which is a pet peeve of mine.

That said, I’m glad I read it and I understand why it’s held in such high regard. It seems that my interest in historical fiction, like my interest in biographies, may not be as strong as most.
