Bu e-kitab haqqında

A deserting soldier treks through the torn-up countryside and abandoned villages, trying to distance himself from the atrocities of war.
An elderly man sits beneath lime trees, remembering his first sexual encounter one summer night with a female stranger who whispered another man's name.
A young woman takes up a job in a care home, spending monotonous days scrubbing floors and yearning to dance at the local nightclub.
The artist Franz Marc lives on in an imagined life as a patient at an asylum, before falling victim to Hitler's policy of Gnadentod.
