Sinopsis

September 1, 1939: ?o?dz?, Poland is on the brink of invasion.When the sirens begin, the professor is sitting at the Astoria Cafe?. The Astoria Cafe? really did exist, but the professor is only a figment of a boy?s imagination.In this work of historical metafiction, our present-day narrator recounts the story of Viktor Bauman, a disillusioned academic forced into the notorious ?o?dz? Ghetto, Elsa Dietrich, a captive Gestapo secretary, and Elsa?s estranged fiancé, Lieutenant Carl Becker, a troubled policeman whose fixation with the past is pushing him towards unspeakable cruelty.Set during the Nazi occupation of Poland, The Requisitions is about history, memory, and a novelist writing himself back into the lives of those who once lived.
