Publisher Description:
Across from an old brewery in a German city, a man and three women lead lives of isolation. Although they harm no one and mind their own business, Nazi officers see them as undocumented nomads who deserve to be punished. This tragic story shows the arbitrary nature of the Nazi regime anddepicts atime of uncertainty, fear, fanaticism, and cruelty while at the same time underscoring the beauty of life."Justo enfrente de una vieja cerveceria, El Danubio Azul, Anton y tres mujeres viven solos en una isla aislada. A pesar de lo inofensivo de sus vidas, a los ojos de los mandos nazis, los habitantes de la isla son nomadas indocumentados y merecedores de un castigo ejemplar. La historiapermite al lector contemporaneo imaginarse la enrarecida atmosfera de una ciudad alemana de entonces y ser testigo de la arbitrariedad criminal del regimen nazi.""
