The Tin Drum
by Günter Grass
1959
On his third birthday, Oskar decides to stop growing. With his tin drum, he recounts a life shaped by family deaths, the Nazi years and the disorder of postwar Germany, turning childhood defiance into a disturbing perspective on history.
Cat and Mouse
by Günter Grass
1961
Self-conscious about his prominent Adam’s apple, fourteen-year-old Joachim Mahlke becomes an exceptional athlete and diver. His quest for recognition unfolds in wartime Danzig, where admiration cannot protect an outsider from the pressures and violence surrounding him.
Dog Years
by Günter Grass
1963
Across forty years of German history, intertwined human and canine lives expose the society that nurtured Nazism. Fantasy, memory and grotesque humor follow its characters through the Third Reich, wartime collapse and the uneasy complacency of postwar recovery.
