Comedy in a Minor Key Paperback / softback

Part of the Pushkin Press Classics series

Paperback / softback

Pre-Order

Description

When Wim and Marie, a young Dutch couple, agree to hide a Jewish man in their home during the Nazi occupation, they think they are fulfilling their patriotic duty.

Tension and awkwardness reign in the house as they try to adapt to this forbidden guest, whom they know as Nico.

Small accidents and unexpected encounters ensue as the dynamic unsettles all three - until Nico dies, and Wim and Marie must face the risky endeavour of disposing of his body. Taut, penetrating and rich with dark irony, Comedy in a Minor Key is a masterful study of human relationships under extreme circumstances.
