Aprašymas

The Feet Say Run is the story of a life spent running--a literary novel that is also a suspenseful page-turner, a work at once emotionally gripping and darkly comic. In his waning years, Hans Jaeger finds himself stranded on a desert island-the last island not mapped by modern GPS-with a small band of survivors. What is my particular crime? he asks. Why have I been chosen for this fate? And so he begins the chronicle of his long life. He tells the tale of his life in Nazi Germany, the Jewish girl he loved, and his years fighting with the Wehrmacht. His war experiences are vividly individual-a struggle for survival in the most harrowing of circumstances-and yet also the broader story of the cruelty and absurdity of the Nazi regime, the madness of men, and of war itself. Hans's story is the story of all the madness, irony and horror of the modern world-and the story of one man who finds redemption only when there's nowhere left to run.
