Paperback. Condition: New. This is the journal of Ignatz Himmelsputz, survivor, dwarf and entertainer. It is 1974 and Ignatz lives in Frankfurt with Giselle,who is the singer in his band, his teacher and a transvestite survivor of the Vietnam War. A chance meeting with Hermann, the son of Von Bühler, an SS Officer under whose control he was kept in the Nazi period, triggers in Ignatz a desire to get his story down: how he was forced to be the companion to Von Bühler's sister who had Down's Syndrome and how he witnessed the sister's descent into the hell of the Nazi euthanasia programmes. He writes down his story interspersed with the detail of his struggles in helping Giselle to cope with her own past.
