Jacket illustration by Günter Grass. keywords: Literature Germany Translated. FROM THE PUBLISHER - The author of THE TIN DRUM is back in Danzig with THE CALL OF THE TOAD, a poignant, irreverent, funny novel about two people who find adventure in love and business. The love is late middle-aged; the business is the cemetery business. The couple's vision is to offer plots in Gdansk to those Germans who had been exiled after World War II. He, the German, will provide not only the bodies but cash and know-how; she, the Pole, will provide the human warmth and political fervor. Günter Grass tells a tale of capitalism taken to absurd extremes as he skewers both the German and the Polish characters, past, present, and future - with the style, tenderness, and baroque inventiveness that have made him famous. Günter Grass is the greatest living German novelist.' - Newsweek. . A virtuoso, a vastly intelligent, sensitive, and humane writer with a zany eye for the preposterous.' - The Washington Post. Günter Grass, born in Danzig in 1927, is Germany's most celebrated contemporary writer, He is a man of remarkable versatility: novelist, poet, playwright, essayist, graphic artist. inventory #826 ISBN: 0151257434.
