HS01 - Critique of Criminal Reason (38 page)
Many wonderful books have influenced the development of this novel, but one of the most enlightening explorations of life and thought in Prussia in the early nineteenth century must be
Tales from the German Underworld
by Richard J. Evans (New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 1998). Regarding the life and opinions of Immanuel Kant, the recent

Special thanks to agent, Leslie Gardner, for her critical insights and endless encouragement, and to everybody at Faber and Faber in the UK and Thomas Dunne Books / St. Martin’s Minotaur in the United States, particularly our editors, Walter Donohue and Peter Joseph.
