Berlin, Vol. 1 by Jason Lutes

City of Stones

A richly detailed black-and-white graphic narrative set in late 1920s Weimar Berlin that follows a cast of ordinary residents whose personal lives, work and nightlife intersect amid economic hardship, political agitation and social change; intimate scenes of domestic routine and conversations alternate with tense street demonstrations and nightlife vignettes to build an atmospheric portrait of a city on the brink, where small choices and encounters begin to echo larger historical upheavals.
