The WEIRDEST book I’ve ever read. Period.
I don’t even know how to describe what it is about, or how it’s written. Set in Germany, describing a bunch of very strange and highly disturbing characters…at points very funny, very random all the way through.
Possibly I’m offended because all these fucked up people are supposed to be German, from Hamelin, which Rhodes uses as an explanation for what’s wrong with them. Maybe he knows a lot of things about Hamelin I’ve never heard of. Maybe he is just a Brit who wants to mock Germans (can you hear my pissed off prejudice against prejudice?). Maybe the book isn’t very good.
Or maybe I just don’t get it.
