Über diesen Titel

Von der hinteren Coverseite

In a war-torn Polish city, Jakob Beer, a seven-year-old Jewish boy, buries himself in the mud to hide from the Nazi soldiers who have murdered his family. A Greek geologist recognizes him as human because he's crying, pulls him out, and spirits him to safety. Decades later and half a world away, Jakob meets Ben, a young professor whose parents survived the Holocaust. The two men's stories intertwine in an unforgettable exploration of grief and redemption.
