Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review“It’s uncanny how contemporary The Radio Operator is. . . .It broadcasts signals from the past to the present as if they were in Morse code.” — NEUE ZÜRCHER ZEITUNG “An incandescent mixture of family history and spy thriller. . . . Ulla Lenze tells the story tightly and incisively, and her sentences radiate with poetry.” — TAGESSPIEGEL “It reads like a thriller, but it's much more than that: The Radio Operator by Ulla Lenze is a historical novel that speaks of guilt intrigue, [and] of country and identity.” — Blick "Ulla Lenze does not put her protagonist on trial, instead letting the readers share in his struggle. . . . Haunting." — Die Zeit "A beautifully-written book, artfully told." — WDR Germany "A magnificently grounded personal journey with a historical core." — Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung "Captivating [and] cleverly constructed." — Tip Berlin “Based on a true story, The Radio Operator is a marvelous period piece from a unique perspective.” — New York Journal of Books “Lenze’s elegant prose and many unique observations [keep] the story moving briskly.” — Historical Novel Society
