'Grenfeld has put the whole awful, tragic, somehow ennobling story together with a quiet passion and a wealth of unexpected details...I suppose there has rarely been in modern cultural history so extraordinarily gifted a group as those German Jewish thinkers - and their equally isolated spiritual compatriots like Mann and Brecht. Late, all too late, they realized that their real country was not Germany but the German language. But what honor they brought and still bring to this country of language, faith and intellect. Before Einstein, Schoenberg, Kafka, Benjamin, Lasker-Schuler and others one feels, in the end, not only awe but pride that a few staggeringly gifted people upheld the honor of the human race at just that moment when murderers were in the ascendancy.' 10% of All sales go to Charity.
