Translation of : Atemschaukel.
"Metropolitan Books."
"Originally published in Germany in 2009 under the title by Atemschaukel by Carl Hanser Verlag, Munich."
January 1945, the war is not yet over : the Soviets begin the deportation of the German minority from the labor camps in Ukraine. This is the story of seventeen year old Leo Auberge, who went to the camp with the naive unawareness of the boy eager to escape provincial life. The last five years however he experienced daily hunger and cold, extreme fatigue and death.
