George Heisler, a Communist, escapes from Westhofen Prison camp in rural Germany and must find local residents willing to help him flee the country
Review:
Simply put, a novel against dictatorship (Marcel Reich-Ranicki)
The material that this book is made from is long-lasting and indestructible; very few things on earth can be compared to it. It is known as justice (Christa Wolf)
It was [Seghers] who taught my generation and anyone who had an ear to listen after that not-to-be-forgotten war to distinguish right from wrong. The Seventh Cross shaped me; it sharpened my vision (Gunter Grass)
