Summary
"Set in Germany before and during the Nazi era, this powerful novel deals with the Nazis' attempt to eradicate Jews and Homosexuals from Europe. From the idyllic, ersort city of Baden-Baden and the cosmopolitan life of pre-war Berlin to the hell of Dachau and Auschwitz concentration camps, the novel traces the life of its main protagonist, the young Van Bertholds-- Jew and Homosexual. His heritage denied him, and his world totally destroyed, Van is forced to live as a Homosexual prisoner, replacing the Star of David with the hated Pink Triangle..." -- Back cover.
