Gefangen im Oranjehotel - 8 illustratierte Kriegsgeschichten #[nn]

The cover's soft, colored-pencil rendering of a austere brick building — its arched blue doors, shuttered windows, and a sky tinged with an uneasy wash of warm color — sets a quietly haunting tone for this German-language anthology from Scratch Books. Gefangen im Oranjehotel ("Prisoner in the Orange Hotel") collects eight illustrated wartime stories, promising a range of personal and historical perspectives on conflict rendered through the intimacy of drawn images. Published in 2026, it's a thoughtful addition to the growing tradition of literary graphic storytelling that takes war seriously without spectacle.
