Abstract

They entered the American paradise like shadows. People scorched by the fire of World War II. Fugitives from all over Europe, who had lost their past. A neurotic fashion model and a cynical, hard-drinking writer. A frivolous actress and a brilliant surgeon. A desperate Resistance hero and an optimistic businessman. What could such different people have in common? The fragility of the absurd existence of an emigrant. And the holy hope of someday returning home...

The novel is published in a new, complete translation by M. Rudnitsky.

Author: Erich Maria Remarque
