The Apartment (Paperback): Greg Baxter The Apartment (Paperback)

"A powerful and elegant debut novel about love, memory, exile, and war."
One snowy December morning in an old European city, an American man leaves his shabby hotel to meet a local woman who has agreed to help him search for an apartment to rent. THE APARTMENT follows the couple across a blurry, illogical, and frozen city into a past the man is hoping to forget, and leaves them at the doorstep of an uncertain future-their cityscape punctuated by the man's lingering memories of time spent in Iraq and the life he abandoned in the United States. Contained within the details of this day is a complex meditation on America's relationship with the rest of the world, an unflinching glimpse at the permanence of guilt and despair, and an exploration into our desire to cure violence with violence.
A novel about how our relationships to others-and most importantly to ourselves-alters how we see the world, THE APARTMENT perfectly captures the peculiarity and excitement of being a stranger in a strange city. Written in an affecting and intimate tone that gradually expands in scope, intensity, poetry, and drama, Greg Baxter's clear-eyed first novel tells the intriguing story of these two people on this single day. Both beguiling and raw in its observations and language, THE APARTMENT is a crisp novel with enormous range that offers profound and unexpected wisdom.

Daar is ’n klop aan die deur. My vinger wil nie verder saamtrek nie. My hart hamer die sekondes in my ore om. Wat sal gebeur as ek die sneller trek?

Johan is negentien en in die weermag. Wanneer die adjudant hom inlig dat hy na Seksie C in die Zambesivallei gestuur word om onreëlmatige ontgroening te ondersoek, pak ’n ongekende opgewondenheid hom beet. Maar dit is korte duur, want Johan besef gou hy is nie opgewasse teen die weermag nie. Ter ontvlugting besoek Johan pasnaweke sy ouer neef Ben in Pretoria. Ben, die rebelse seun van die generaal. Ben wat sy eie oorlog veg.

Die Generaal is ’n onthutsende, oorrompelende en aangrypende verhaal wat die absurditeit van die Grensoorlog en die verwoestende impak daarvan op jong mans se lewens met sensitiwiteit teken.

Deborah se verbittering teenoor haar man, Karl, vererger, en daarby word haar liefde vir Kit galsterig met die verloop van die jare. Weens sy onvermoë om sy vrou se liefde te herwin word die lewe vir Karl onuithoudbaar – soveel so dat hy dinge in sy eie hande neem. Maar ook Deborah en Kit dra letsels ná die Boereoorlog: Ten spyte van hul hunkering na mekaar, bly hul liefde onvervuld. Op die vooraand van die Eerste Wêreldoorlog ontmoet Kurt, Deborah se seun, vir Victoria, Kit se dogter. Hulle word verlief en is bereid om die besware van hul families teen te staan. Die spanning bereik ’n breekpunt wanneer hulle in ’n skermutseling in Europa vasval en hul liefde ’n duur prys verg . . .

Wat hou die toekoms vir die Mannheim- en Malloy-families in? En kan Deborah en Kit, dekades ná hulle die eerste keer ontmoet het, uiteindelik versoen raak in hul liefde vir mekaar?

For fans of The Warsaw Orphan and The Tattooist of Auschwitz: the start of WWII changed everything in Poland irrevocably—except for one man’s capacity to love.

September 1, 1939. Sixty-year-old Janusz Korczak and the students and teachers at his Dom Sierot Jewish orphanage are outside enjoying a beautiful day in Warsaw. Hours later, their lives are altered forever when the Nazis invade. Suddenly treated as an outcast in his own city, Janusz—a respected leader known for his heroism and teaching—is determined to do whatever it takes to protect the children from the horrors to come.

When over four hundred thousand Jewish people are rounded up and forced to live in the 1.3-square-mile walled compound of the Warsaw ghetto, Janusz and his friends take drastic measures to shield the children from disease and starvation. With dignity and courage, the teachers and students of Dom Sierot create their own tiny army of love and bravely prepare to march toward the future—whatever it may hold.

Unforgettable, devastating, and inspired by a real-life hero of the Holocaust, The Teacher of Warsaw reminds the world that one single person can incite meaning, hope, and love.
