The Luminous Life of Lilly Aphrodite by Beatrice Colin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book was a quick read, the atmosphere created allowed you to sink into it and the characters drew you in. The little "future" snippets on some of the characters was interesting, it made them more real. Almost an epilogue that has been broken up and interspersed into the writing at a later date.
It was an intriguing look at life in Weimar Germany, the instability that created National Socialism, the intense poverty and social breakdown.
