Review:
"A rich, troubling work that offers incontrovertible evidence of this great writer's undiminished artistry, integrity, and passion."
Kirkus, 10/01/2000
Review:"[H]owever unpersuasive Grass's political opinions may be, what matters is how well they work within the novel's fictional world. And here, I think, Grass has it right....[B]ecause the characters' love affairs, betrayals, friendships and, above all, their familial hopes and disappointments neatly mesh with the political context, the fictional and historical dimensions of the novel reinforce each other....Despite its autumnal hues..., this is not a book without hope and affirmation, which Grass finds in literature's enduring power to overcome the obdurate power of time, history and death."
James J. Sheehan, New York Times Book Review, 11/05/2000

Too Far Afield (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780156014168) Grass, Gunter;Winston, Krishna Quantity Available: 10
Book Description: Mariner Books, United States, 2001. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 230 x 151 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery ***** Print on Demand *****. From the Nobel Prize-winning author of My Century and The Tin Drum, a novel of broad historical proportions set in Berlin during the years of German reunification. Two old men roam through Berlin observing life in the former German Democratic Republic after the fall of the Wall in 1989. Theo Wuttke, a former East German functionary, is a keen observer and a gifted speaker. Ludwig Hoftaller is a mid-level spy whose loyalties shift with each new regime. Together, both men see what the future is bringing as they try to save what they can from the past and understand the meaning of being German. A complex and challenging exploration of what Germany's reunification will mean-for Germans, for Europe, and for the world-Too Far Afield is a masterwork from one of Europe's greatest writers. Written with the wit, fantasy, literary erudition, and political acerbity for which Grass is celebrated, it is a deeply human story laced with pain and humor in equal measure.
