We Germans

When a young British man asks his German grandfather what it was like to fight on the wrong side of the war, the question is initially met with irritation and silence. But after the old man's death, a long letter to his grandson is found among his things. That letter is this book. We Germans is a fundamentally human novel that grapples with the most profound of questions about guilt, shame and responsibility. An impressively realistic novel of German soldiers on the eastern front.
