By Rachel Seiffert

What We Say: Just weeks after the German invasion of Ukraine, a small town is overrun by the SS. Deft. Centring the human experience and survival in the face of Nazi atrocities, Seiffert’s novel gives an account of the three days that follow.

What They Say: “Seiffert’s writing is spare and atmospheric, perfectly paced to achieve the maximum effect of stillness yielding to panic, order giving way to violent disorder and, eventually, winter turning into spring” – Times Literary Supplement
