Starritt’s powerful novel, We Germans, tells the story of an ordinary German soldier in World War II, as he

comes to terms with his crimes and guilt in a letter written decades later to his grandson. Praised for its

intelligence and eloquence, the novel is both historic and timely in its exploration of the nature of evil and

a society’s perpetuation of it.
