From the English edition:

…a deeply moving novel by a remarkable yet neglected chronicler of the Holocaust. Full of dark humour and bitter irony, Weil’s novel traces the transformation of ordinary lives during the Nazi occupation of Prague. This is the story of the struggle to survive in the labyrinthine Nazi regime, and the courage required to retain hope and humanity.
