Inhalt/Kritik

Kritik
"A riveting debut." - The Boston Globe "Many characters "sleepwalk" through the murky world of this novel; it's a testament to how endearing the industrious Willi is that readers will find themselves wanting to shake him by the shoulders and tell him to wake up before it's too late." - The Washington Post "Powerfully captures the atmosphere of Berlin on the verge of Nazi takeover, the elegance and cultural brilliance amid the decadence, and the sense of impending doom." - Library Journal, starred review "Remarkable."
---David Liss, bestselling author of "The Devil's Company"mehr
