Who Censored Roger Rabbit?

Like a lot of folks, I found out about this book when the movie version came out, Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

The world-building in the movie was so compelling and unique that I decided to pick up the book. And I’m so glad that I did. The plot in the book is much more complicated, and the social satire is even sharper. One of my all-time favorite noir mysteries.

As a lifelong Angeleno and a history nut, I’m a sucker for funhouse mirror takes on my city.

The world Wolf builds is at once fantastic and real, easy to get lost in, and even easier to visualize. I don’t know if there’s a single novel that’s been more formative to my idea of what fiction should be: funny, exciting, weird, and all wrapped up in a compelling mystery.

There’s a permanent crease in my brain courtesy of Wolf, and I couldn’t be more grateful.
