Reseña del libro "The Granddaughter: A Novel (en Inglés)"

"Anyone who wants to understand contemporary Germany must read The Granddaughter now" --Le Monde"The great novel of German reunification" --Le FigaroFrom the bestselling author of The Reader, a striking exploration of the wounds of the past, told through the story of a German bookseller's attempt to connect with his radicalized granddaughter.It is only after the sudden death of his wife, Birgit, that Kaspar discovers the price she paid years earlier when she fled East Germany to join him: she had to abandon her baby. Shattered by grief, yet animated by a new hope, Kaspar closes up his bookshop in present day Berlin and sets off to find her lost child in the east.His search leads him to a rural community of neo-Nazis, intent on reclaiming and settling ancestral lands to the East. Among them, Kaspar encounters Svenja, a woman whose eyes, hair, and even voice remind him of Birgit. Beside her is a red-haired, slouching, fifteen-year-old girl. His granddaughter? Their worlds could not be more different-- an ideological gulf of mistrust yawns between them-- but he is determined to accept her as his own.More than twenty-five years after The Reader, Bernhard Schlink once again offers a masterfully gripping novel that powerfully probes the past's role in contemporary life, transporting us from the divided Germany of the 1960s to modern day Australia, and asking what unites or separates us.Translated from the German by Charlotte CollinsTranslated from the German by Charlotte Collins
