Their new home is even lovelier than the one they left behind, and best of all--right on their doorstep--are some of the finest craftsmen from all over Europe. Frau Hahn and the other officers' wives living in this small community can order anything they desire, whether new curtains made from the finest French silks, or furniture designed to the most exacting specifications. Life here in Buchenwald would appear to be idyllic. Lying just beyond the forest that surrounds them--so close and yet so remote--is the looming presence of a work camp. Frau Hahn's husband, SS SturmbannfuÌhrer Dietrich Hahn, is to take up a powerful new position as the camp's administrator. As the prison population begins to rise, the job becomes ever more consuming. Corruption is rife at every level, the supplies are inadequate, and the sewerage system is under increasing strain. When Frau Hahn is forced into an unlikely and poignant alliance with one of Buchenwald's prisoners, Dr. Lenard Weber, her naiÌve ignorance about what is going on so nearby is challenged. A decade earlier, Dr. Weber had invented a machine: the Sympathetic Vitaliser. At the time he believed that its subtle resonances might cure cancer. But does it really work? One way or another, it might yet save a life." --Publisher's website. 610 20 $a Buchenwald (Concentration camp) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Concentration camp inmates $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women Nazis $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Nazis $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Wives $v Fiction. 941 $a 9 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010022448.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909064451.0 952 $l YUPD232 $d 20220809012008.0 952 $l TOPB062 $d 20220503074613.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210902012807.0 952 $l YLPC314 $d 20210901011955.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20210824011422.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20210702012423.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210514010044.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A4829D7AB47911EB9D5870B534ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
