It is really interesting, but unfortunately I can't rec it to Mildred for German practice because the author does a great job ventriquolizing Rokoko German in the 18th Century sections. That's too tough. (The 19th century sections would be copable, though they do have some chilling sections where two doctors - Müller isn't one of them, but his boss Gudden is - talk about vivisections on animals. (At which point, I guess, a great many readers will wonder who's the crazy one, Ludwig with his Wagner fandom and admittedly out of control money spending, or these guys.)

Yeeeeeaaah, I can't do that right now. :P Someday!

talk about vivisections on animals

From sex with animals to vivisection of animals in just one week. The universe is clearly out to give you mental images you could have done without. ;)
