“A fine novel, as far above a Holocaust genre as Crime and Punishment is above the average thriller. A sensitive, daring, deeply moving book about the tragic results of fear and the redemptive power of understanding'” -Ruth Rendell
Winner of the Hans Fallada Prize in 1998 and the first German novel to top The New York Times bestseller list, The Reader has been translated into 45 languages and adapted by David Hare into a film directed by Stephen Daldry and starring Kate Winslet.
