Two outstanding stories of war in a single volume, from the winner of the Nobel Prize for the short story A Soldiers Legacy and The Silent Angel, Boll’s haunting first novel. “…staggering in its intensity and evocation of despair and shock… an occasion for renewing our appreciation for Boll’s genius”– Booklist. “…terrifically on target with its series of tragic, ascetically drawn tableaux…a great document…”– Kirkus.
