This was a fast read. Otto is a former music critic who also happens to be Jewish (although not recognized as such) living with tuberculosis in a sanatorium in Austria in 1939. He attempts to take a stance against the Nazis during the annual music festival. It was interesting to view the beginnings of the holocaust through Otto‘s eyes as a child of a Jewish parent who did not see himself as Jewish and I would like to have spent more time there.
