'It conveys, with concreteness and vitality, the, the detailed quality of ordinary life in the Hitler years and at the time of their catastrophic end' -Sunday Telegraph 'Leni (the central character) is seen through a series of interviews with witnesses who make up this huge "group portrait". This works brilliantly as a parody of fashionable documentary; then by making the story resonant with overlapping echoes; and finally by counterpointing these voices of the imagination with the terrible dead language of real documents of Nazi bureaucracy' -Guardian 'A work of considerable distinction' -The Times Literary Supplement
