If Tarantino met Murakami in Germany-this multiple-prize-winning graphic novel set in six adjoining apartments is touching, intricate and very, very violent. When three sleazy gangsters storm into an apartment in search of a stolen urn, they set off a series of unfortunate events that threatens everyone in the building. As blood begins to pool, it becomes clear that this story is about more than the senseless violence. What is good and what is evil? Who decides who should die? And does anyone really know their neighbors? Theft and poison and so much shooting: and yet, on muted and somber pages, heartless villains become vulnerable heroes-before descending to cruelty once again. In this graphic novel that swept awards for best debut in Germany and Switzerland, a classic gangster comedy of errors grows into a meditation on loneliness, morality, and even love.
