The novel tells the tale of Richard, a retired classics professor who lives in Berlin. His wife has died, and he lives a routine existence until one day he spies some African refugees staging a hunger strike in Alexanderplatz. Curiosity turns to compassion and an inner transformation, as he visits their shelter, interviews them, and becomes embroiled in their harrowing fates. Go, Went, Gone is a scathing indictment of Western policy toward the European refugee crisis, but also a touching portrait of a man who finds he has more in common with the Africans than he realizes. Exquisitely translated by Susan Bernofsky, Go, Went, Gone addresses one of the most pivotal issues of our time, facing it head-on in a voice that is both nostalgic and frightening. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Refugees $z Europe $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Widowers $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Berlin (Germany) $v Fiction. 700 1 $a Flanagan, Lisa, $e Narrator. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/13436728?utm_source=MARC $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/dra_9780811229968_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20201104010307.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=522D717C079911EB91AE0FFD35ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
