Imre Kertész's savagely lyrical and suspenseful new novel traces the continuing echoes the Holocaust and communism in the consciousness of contemporary Eastern Europe.Ten years after the fall of communism, a writer named B. commits suicide, devastating his circle and deeply puzzling his friend Kingsbitter. For among B.'s effects, Kingsbitter finds a play that eerily predicts events after his death. Why did B.-who was born at Auschwitz and miraculously survived-take his life? As Kingsbitter searches for the answer-and for the novel he is convinced lies hidden among his friend's papers-Liquidation becomes an inquest into the deeply compromised inner life of a generation. The result is moving, revelatory and haunting.
I have a question about the book:
'Liquidation - Kertész, Imre'.
