Hi there,

I was just filled with anxiety /apprehension reading this. Like, a constant: "Something is not right. Something is not right" going on in a loop. And low and behold, something was not right. There is a twist. It's quite dark. The book is only 130 pages, though. So a quick read! I downloaded a free PDF.

 

[Babe Ruth]

Vansant has created a number of historical graphic novels. I had a childhood interest in von Richtofen, so I'm giving this one a read.

For sure, biographies as well as history which is sometimes within the same book.

Used to subscribe to the Biography channel, maybe that's where I was hooked.

Read TC Boyle: Stories and The Complete Stories of JG Ballard. Just started Collected Stories of Paul Bowles.

Have had them on the shelf for ages, but have always been reading other things. finally powering through them. Expect the collected stories of Nabokov to be next.
