Unrepentant Patriot

Meer over het boek

The narrative chronicles Carl Zuckmayer's rise as a prominent playwright in post-World War I Central Europe, highlighting his prolific work during the Weimar Republic. The ascent of the Nazi regime led to a ban on his plays and forced him into exile, first in Austria and later in the United States. Upon returning to a devastated Germany after the war, he struggled to reconnect with his homeland before ultimately finding peace in a secluded Swiss village, where he lived until his death in 1977.
