In the title novella  and six subsequent stories, Lind distorts and refashions reality to make the deepest  horrors of the twentieth century his own.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSet during World War II, “Soul of Wood”  is the story of Wohlbrecht, a peg-legged veteran of World War I, who smuggles Anton  Barth, a paralyzed Jewish boy, to a mountain hideout after the boy’s parents have  been sent to their deaths. Abandoning the helpless boy to the elements, Wohlbrecht  returns to Vienna, where, having been committed to an insane asylum, he helps the  chief psychiatrist to administer lethal injections to other patients. But Germany  is collapsing and the war will soon be over. The one way, Wohlbrecht realizes, that  he can evade retribution is by returning to the woods to redeem “his” hidden Jew.  Others, however, have had the same bright idea.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50954300358944,"sku":"9781590173305","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9781590173305.jpg?v=1763683850","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/es\/products\/soul-of-wood","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
