Description
by Anne Weber (Author), Neil Blackadder (Translator)
How do you live with a history you can't escape? What did it mean to be German one hundred years ago? And what is it like today? These are the questions at the heart of Sanderling, a classic work of literary inquiry by Anne Weber, one of Germany's leading contemporary authors. Weber embarks on a personal journey into the past to uncover the life of her great-grandfather Florens Christian Rang (1864- 1924), whom she nicknames Sanderling after the darting shorebird. A Protestant pastor in Prussian-ruled Poland, Rang served a church whose mission to "Germanise" the local population would later be echoed in the murderous ambitions of the Third Reich.
