Voices in the Dark

"A daring and ambitious graphic novel. Rachel Cooke, The Guardian

"Following her award-winning graphic novel memoir Today Is the Last Day of the Rest of Your Life, Lust adapts The Karnau Tapes, Beyer s dense, dark novel set during the collapse of the Third Reich. She is more than up to the task, transmuting the material with visual imagination and insight .It s a rare adaptation that, rather than simply transcribing the source material, transcends it." Publishers Weekly, starred review

"Profound, with characters driven to find truths that ultimately prove devastating. Lust's clean, confident lines richly convey everything from a child's discomfort with a haircut to a dog's eagerness to play to Karnau's sheer bliss from a 'quivering glottis.'...The illustration style and muted color palette (like an aged newspaper) achieve a haunting realism despite cartoonish exaggeration and expressionistic flourishes. Stunning." Kirkus, starred review

Ulli Lust really nails my favorite part of storytelling the small details that create great character." Jaime Hernandez, author of Love and Rockets
