A little-known event in recent Spanish history. A story about family, betrayal, and guilt.
In 1916, in the midst of the First World War, two ships arrived in Cádiz carrying more than six hundred Germans from Cameroon. They had surrendered to the colonial authorities at the Guinean border, as Spain was a neutral country. They settled in Zaragoza, among other places, and formed a small community there that would never return to Germany. Among them was the great-grandfather of Eva and Fede, who, almost a century later, are gathered in the German cemetery in Zaragoza for the burial of Gabi, their older brother. Along with their father, they are the last surviving members of the Schuster family, a family that once built a significant food business. But in these times, the past can always resurface and stir up trouble.
With a gripping intrigue that builds page by page, 'The Germans' tackles one of the most shameful and least discussed episodes in Spanish history: how Nazis who found refuge here in a gilded retreat fueled neo-Nazism in Germany. It subtly illuminates the hell that family can sometimes become, and leaves two uncomfortable questions hanging in the air: When do parental guilts expire? Does the obligation to atone for them extend to the children?

ETA Hoffmann (1776 - 1822) was one of the greatest German Romantic fantasy authors and a pioneer of the Gothic horror genre. In The Wounded Storyteller, fairy tale specialist Jack Zipes sheds light on how Hoffmann's life of personal trauma shaped his writing and inspired his groundbreaking stories. Zipes has selected five of the German writer's most influential stories: The Golden Cauldron, The Sandman, The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, The Mysterious Child, and The Mines of Falun; in them, he explores themes and invents characters who move between reality, dreams, and fantasy. The edition is brilliantly enriched by Natalie Frank's powerful chalk pastels and gouache, which reveal Hoffmann's parallel worlds in full-page and margin drawings created exclusively for this edition. The Wounded Storyteller thus introduces Hoffmann's timeless work to a new generation of readers
