Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of 1936 Berlin, a young zoologist, Ernst Schäfer, is drawn into a secret SS mission to uncover the origins of the Aryan race in Tibet. As he pursues this ambition, his marriage to Herta, a nonconformist flautist, becomes strained as she questions his choices and the moral implications of their lives under the Nazi regime. The narrative serves as a poignant exploration of ambition, complicity, and the haunting consequences of history, told through the perspectives of both the animals affected and the conflicted wife.
