Voices in the Dark - Thryft
Voices in the Dark - Thryft

Soundscape journey amid WWII's darkest corners.

If you've ever felt the chilling power of a whisper or the thunderous impact of a speech, "Voices in the Dark" will captivate you. Ulli Lust crafts a narrative that's as much about the sonic imprints of the human voice as it is about the inhumanness of war. It's a graphic novel that recollects history through the lens of sound, asking us to listen to the voices that would often go unheard. It's not just an account of war; it's an experience of its echoes.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Germany, in the final years of the Third Reich. Hermann Karnau is a sound engineer obsessed with recording the human voice in all its variations - the rantings of leaders, the roar of crowds, the rasp of throats constricted in fear - and indifferent to everything else. Employed by the Nazis, his assignments take him to party rallies, to the eastern front, and into the household of Joseph Goebbels. There he meets Helga, the eldest daughter: bright, good-natured, and just beginning to suspect the horror that surrounds her. Based on the acclaimed novel by Marcel Beyer, Voices in the Dark is the first graphic novel by the award-winning cartoonist Ulli Lust. It is the story of an unlikely friendship and of a childhood betrayed, a grim parable of naivete and evil, and a vivid, unsettling masterpiece of comics storytelling. As Germany descends into chaos, Helga's and Hermann's lives intertwine, then finally collide. In Hitler's Berlin bunker, with the Red Army closing in, Hermann receives his greatest assignment: recording the Fuhrer's final words - and the last moments of Helga and her family.
