       penetrating" André Aciman -- cover 
520    "BERLIN, NOVEMBER 1938. With storm troopers battering 
       against his door, Otto Silbermann must flee out the back 
       of his own home. He emerges onto streets thrumming with 
       violence: it is Kristallnacht, and synagogues are being 
       burnt, Jews rounded up and their businesses destroyed. 
       Turned away from establishments he had long patronised, 
       betrayed by friends and colleagues, Otto finds his life as
       a respected businessman has dissolved overnight. 
       Desperately trying to conceal his Jewish identity, he 
       takes train after train across Germany in a race to escape
       this homeland that is no longer home. Twenty-three-year-
       old Ulrich Alexander Boschwitz wrote The Passenger at 
       breakneck speed in 1938, fresh in the wake of the 
       Kristallnacht pogroms, and his prose flies at the same 
       pace. Shot through with Hitckcockian tension, The 
       Passenger is a blisteringly immediate story of flight and 
       survival in Nazi Germany."
