There will be a club. Important messages have been sent already. If
anybody wants to ruin it, he will be punished. Eleven-year-old
Elmer inhabits a childhood of superstition, private lore and secret
societies. When a new boy, pale, spindly Werther, arrives in the
neighbourhood, a subtle game of fascination and persecution begins.
In wartime Amsterdam, a young boy watches as Germans occupy the
city. At first his parents' friends, the Boslowits family, think
they have little to fear. Then, slowly, terribly, their fate is
sealed. These two haunting novellas, from the acclaimed author of
The Evenings, evoke the world of childhood, in all its magic and
strangeness, darkness and cruelty. Here, the things seen through a
child's eyes are far from innocent.
