Winter

Deighton, Len

£10.99

‘Winter’ takes us into a large and complex family drama. It looks at the lives of two German brothers – both born close upon the turn of the 20th century, both so caught up in the currents of history that their story is one with the story of their country, from the Kaiser’s heyday through Hitler’s rise and fall.

Description

‘A monumental work … brilliantly executed’ Daily Telegraph

‘The pace and tension leave one almost breathless. A frightening yet compelling novel’ Sunday Telegraph

Peter and Paul, the two sons of German businessman Harald Winter, are bonded together by a childhood trauma. But as they grow up the brothers also grow apart. When the shadow of the Third Reich falls they become divided by war and their differing ideals – only to meet again years later at the Nuremberg trials. An epic prelude to the Bernard Samson Game, Set and Match trilogy, Winter is a rich, tragic portrait of the fortunes of a family, and a nation, over half a century.
