The Second World War is over, but young Tomas learns that Europe's wounds have not yet healed. Tomas is taught by English war veterans. He walks the ruins of Coventry with his Gran, the city still rebuilding from the blitz. But his mother is German, and as he nears adulthood Tomas finds himself in Berlin. His enigmatic uncle takes him in, a blind, disgraced Nazi soldier. Arm-in-arm, they explore a drastically changing Berlin, leading one another to places new. Tomas finds more family out in Dresden, a city decimated by Allied firebombs, What might a young man make of this shattered legacy? What might we inherit from the wars of our elders, and how might we move on? This is a 30th Anniversary edition, complete with a new introduction "Goodman interweaves a young man's search for selfhood in provincial Britain with the mysteries of his mother's German past." - Vogue
