The story of a young man caught in the whirlwind of World War 2 in Eastern Europe. Not wishing to fight on any one side, he tries only to survive the nightmare and return home.
Written in a tone of ironic defiance, the author's prose is lucid, vivid and economical, as befits a poet. Perceptive observations of human behaviour often find relevance in today's world of increasing tension and uncertainty. Described by The Age as "a short, haunting novel, which movingly transcends all boundaries of time and place." World Literature Today calls it "a little masterpiece... without pathos or sentimentality."
