Description

In the heart of Berlin during the tumultuous Weimar Republic, the city's vibrant yet chaotic atmosphere serves as a backdrop for the intertwining lives of its inhabitants. Jason Lutes captures a moment in history marked by political upheaval, artistic expression, and the forging of personal identities. As the characters navigate their hopes and fears, the story delves deep into their relationships against the ever-evolving socio-political landscape of 1920s Germany.

Against a canvas rich with the struggle between tradition and modernity, the narrative unfolds with a cinematic quality. Readers are drawn into the lives of artists, activists, and everyday citizens, each grappling with the uncertainties of their time. The allure of the city is palpable, its smoke-filled streets echoing the dreams and disillusionments of a generation seeking meaning amid chaos.
