Having excaped from a Nazi concentration camp in 1937, the nameless twenty-seven-year-old German narrator of Seghers's multilayered book ends up in the dusty seaport of Marseille. This book is an existential, polictical, literary thriller that explores the agonies of boredom, the vitality of storytelling, and the plights of the exile with extraordinary compassion and insight.
