I'd also recommend 'Goodbye to Berlin' by Christopher Isherwood. It's relatively easy to read and provides interesting portraits of different characters in Berlin during a particular era. You'll get to know about the city's nightlife, the people, and the social hierarchies.
Well, 'City of Women' by David R. Gillham is also a great choice. It takes place in Berlin during World War II and focuses on the experiences of women. It shows how they coped with the shortages, the fear, and the changes in the social fabric due to the war, providing a different perspective on the historical events in Berlin.
The characters in Berlin graphic novels tend to be diverse. They can be immigrants, artists, or regular working - class people. This diversity reflects the real makeup of Berlin. And the art styles can range from realistic to more abstract, depending on the mood and theme of the story. For instance, a novel about the city's nightlife might have a more edgy and abstract art style.
One of the great Lucia Berlin stories is 'A Manual for Cleaning Women'. It offers a vivid look into the lives of various characters, often with a sense of rawness and authenticity. The stories are filled with complex relationships and the struggles of everyday life.
