Tirza. Grunberg A.

Jorgen Hofmeister does everything to be considered an exemplary neighbor, a conscientious employee, an intelligent person, a diligent spouse and a caring father. However, the year after year his decent world collapses: an unhappy marriage, an unsuccessful career, financial collapse. Jorgen strokes the blows of fate until the catastrophe happens - his youngest daughter, obsessively beloved by Tirza, goes with his young man on a trip to Africa and disappears... The inconsolable father throws everything and flies in search.

Arnon Grunberg delays us into a whirlpool of emotions, balancing between tenderness, forbidden revelations and terrible revelations. He will show the reader a mirror, forcing us to see what we refuse to see. Ecce Homo is a person.

The book is translated into 23 languages ​​and recognized by many literary critics one of the best novels of the century. The film adaptation of Tirza was nominated for the Oscar.
