Description
Berlin is one of the high-water marks of the comics medium. For twenty years, Jason Lutes toiled on this intimate, sweeping epic masterpiece, before the collected Berlin was published in 2018 to widespread acclaim, including rave reviews in The New York
Times, The Guardian, The Nation, Vulture, Washington Post, and many other outlets.
Seen through the eyes of the Jews and the Nazis; the socialists and the socialites; the lavishly decorated queer clubs and the crumbling tenement apartments. Lutes weaves these characters’ lives into the larger fabric of a city slowly ripping apart,
crafting a polyphonic novel that is rich in its historical detail and as timely as ever in its depiction of a society slowly awakening to the stranglehold of fascism.
