The Requisitions - Paperback

History, memory, and love intertwine in this historical metafiction set in Nazi-occupied Poland.

A present-day narrator trying to make sense of his past recounts the story of Viktor, a disillusioned academic forced into the L?dź Ghetto, Elsa, a captive Gestapo secretary, and her estranged fianc?, Carl, a troubled policeman whose fixation with the past is pushing him towards unspeakable cruelty.

Set during the Nazi occupation of Poland, The Requisitions is about a novelist writing himself back into the lives of those who once lived, an unforgettable page-turner and metamodern meditation on the barbarity and beauty of the human condition.
