500 "This is a Borzoi Book"
520 "A novel in which a book-a first edition of Joseph Roth's
masterpiece Rebellion-narrates its own astonishing life
story, from 1930s Germany to the present day as an
American artist returns to Berlin, the book's birthplace,
to decipher a mystery on its last page"--|cProvided by
publisher.
520 One old copy of the novel Rebellion sits in Lena Knecht's
tote bag, about to accompany her on a journey from New
York to Berlin in search of a clue to the hand-drawn map
on its last page. It is the brilliantly captivating voice
of this novel--a first edition nearly burned by Nazis in
May 1933--that is our narrator. Fast-paced and tightly
plotted, The Pages brings together a multitude of dazzling
characters, real and invented, in a sweeping story of
survival, chance, and the joys and struggles of love. At
its center are Roth, an Austrian Jewish author on the run,
and his wife, Friederike, who falls victim to mental
illness as Europe descends into war. With vivid evocations
of Germany under Nazism and today, The Pages dramatically
illuminates the connections between past and present as it
looks at censorship, oppression, and violence. Here is a
propulsive, inspiring tale of literature over a hundred
years: a novel for book lovers everywhere that will bring
a fresh audience to this acclaimed writer.
