## Description

This is a truly major work, both deeply moving and incredibly powerful. It is a masterpiece of research, structure and writing. Never before has anyone so brilliantly integrated the history of the Nazi onslaught on the Jews of Vienna – a more vicious explosion even than in Germany – with the intimate experience of their victims. It is an unforgettable story of greed, betrayal and hypocrisy, self-sacrifice, impossible moral choices and survivor guilt
