4.0 out of 5 stars A rare perspective, May 25, 2009
By 
This review is from: The Wolves (Mass Market Paperback)
Kirst's book is about a contrarian in pre-WW2 East Prussia who finds it all too easy to despise the growth of Nazism. It's a great story about how failing to confront evil leads to bad things.

3.0 out of 5 stars I had expected better (Part 2), October 3, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Similar to my review of the author's Last Stop Camp, this book in no way matches the disturbing power of Every Man Dies Alone or The Kindly Ones. Perhaps it had a greater impact when first published; now it is a tired and (worse) predictable tale of life in a German village before and during WW II. The Nazis are bad, the hero is the salt of the earth, and just punishment is meted out to all who deserve it. One can wile away a day at the beach reading this, but I suspect there are better uses for your time. Note: I spent more effort trying to decide if "wile away" or "while away" was the correct spelling than in reflecting on the moral conflicts in this book.
