This book tells the story of two friends, Martin Schulse, a German, and Max Einsestein, an American Jew, who are partners in the art market. Both live in California, but in 1932 Martin decides to return to Germany. From that moment on, an exchange of letters begins between them, where the shadow of the political situation in Germany is perceived, beyond their professional and personal relationship. This novel has become a literary phenomenon, conveying a heartbreaking message against Nazism.
