Even the cover is an eye-catcher: “WEIL.” it’s written in blood-red, shiny capital letters, followed by a dot. That will become important. But first of all, the three by three boxes are reminiscent of slides that are placed under a microscope to examine something closely. In fact, Martin Muser’s first novel for young adults is an experimental arrangement, a thought-construction that sharpens the “Why?” game from childhood into a relentless lesson on moral-philosophical and socio-political questions: Why? Therefore. Why? Because.
