The Kindly ones : a novel

Littell, Jonathan 1967- (Author).

Summary: This is a fictional memoir of Dr. Max Aue, a former Nazi officer who survived the war and has reinvented himself, many years later, as a middle-class entrepreneur and family man in northern France. Littell's masterpiece is intense, hallucinatory, and utterly original. Critics abroad have compared this provocative and controversial work of literature to Tolstoy's WAR AND PEACE, a classic epic of war that, a morally challenging read.
