'Night in Lisbon' (1962) is a tragic, heartfelt novel by Erich Maria Remarque about World War II.

This is not just one night in Lisbon, which contains this entire story. This is not just a chance meeting of two desperate people, one of whom is trying in vain to find two tickets on a steamship to America, and the other is looking for someone to talk to. This is a true confession of a brave, courageous man who has endured unimaginable trials. This is the story of an entire generation of people faced with war, caught in the clutches of fascism. It is also a story of love, before which even death retreats.
