8vo., First English Edition; cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in the dustwrapper.
First published in Germany as 'Das Schicksal des A.D.', this is the true story of a man entangled in the politics of Germany from the end of WWI to the Berlin Wall. 'It is a major contribution to the literature of imprisonment.' Very scarce, especially in this condition.
