Opis

Revealing the story of Germany through the inhabitants of one small wooden building: a nobleman farmer, a Jewish family, a renowned Nazi composer, a widow and her children, a Stasi informant, this book moves from the late nineteenth century to the present day, from the devastation of two world wars to the dividing and reuniting of a nation.
