Set against the backdrop of a small Swiss town during and after World War II, the story centers on Gustav Perle, who navigates a complex relationship with his harsh mother, Emilie, and his deep friendship with Anton Zweibel, a Jewish boy with musical talent. The narrative delves into the roots of Emilie's anti-Semitism and its effects on Gustav and Anton, exploring themes of childhood love, loss, and redemption as their lives unfold in different directions. The novel poignantly examines how friendships evolve and endure through adversity.
