Cori H. Spenzich reviewed Violent cases by Neil Gaiman
Review of 'Violent cases' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Gaiman and McKean's "first child," with gangsters carrying violent cases of tommy guns within. A story of a man telling a story from his childhood. Made me think of Mr. Punch, a story of a man telling a story from his childhood, too. Both of them play well with the murkiness of memory.
Al Capone, baseball bats, and terrible parties with children. Have you ever wondered what a violent, adult-version of musical chairs looks like? Violent Cases provides a good take.
Again, amazing artwork by Dave McKean paired with Gaiman's storytelling. Get it. Read it. Keep on your bookshelf.
