Description

Set against the backdrop of pre-war Germany, this novel tells the story of an unlikely friendship between two men, William Bradshaw and Arthur Norris. Their chance encounter on a train sparks a close relationship, one that reveals the complexities of Norris's character.

Norris is a man of contradictions, with a lavish lifestyle that belies his financial struggles, and a polite exterior that hides a more sinister side. As their friendship deepens, Bradshaw finds himself drawn into Norris's world, and must confront the darker aspects of his own nature.

First published in 1933, this novel offers a poignant portrayal of the atmosphere of Berlin during a time of great turmoil, and explores the complexities of human relationships in the face of adversity.
