“An exceptional book.”—The Times Literary Supplement

“Gracefully measured, conversational and obliquely impressionistic . . . a cause for celebration."—The Irish Times

This extraordinary novel is based on a true story of the love between Rudi and Marga. Imprisoned in Auschwitz, Rudi petitions to be allowed to marry Marga and make his son legitimate. Eventually his petition is granted—no one knows why. Rudi’s wife and child are brought to Auschwitz, his father and brother come from Vienna, and the officials who normally spend all their time registering the deaths now register a marriage.

Erich Hackl is an Austrian novelist and short-story writer.

Recensione:
His most ambitious project as a writer so far (Die Welt)

Convincingly tells the story of a great love during times of war. A complex and demanding book, and it is probably Hackl's darkest and saddest work to date (Berliner Zeitung)

Treads the fine line between literature and literary-historical journalism... A strange little book, shocking and moving, yet tender and kind at the same time (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung)

This quietly moving book demonstrates why Erich Hackl is unique (Literaturen)

An exceptional book (Tadzio Koelb TLS 2009-05-08)

gracefully measured, conversational and obliquely impressionistic.... a cause for celebration. (Eileen Battersby The Irish Times 2009-06-13)

A remarkable proof of the enduring power of love. (N/A Jewish Chronicle 2010-04-16)

..poignant and ironically inspiring novel...A major contribution to Holocaust fiction. (Booklist USA 2010-04-15)

The book's non-Jewish, political context begins to round out one's understanding of this terrible era. (Baltimore Jewish Times 2010-04-09)
