Christa Wolf's mesmerizing short novel--a bestseller in Germany--is a supreme work of political and philosophical insight by one of Europe's great writers. Alive with myth and metaphor, rich in historical and literary allusion, it draws a nuanced, witty, and utterly compelling portrait of a person and a society close to death yet still capable of recovery.
