Nights, lost - With his mother, young Pawel flees from Poland to Vienna at the beginning of the Second World War. There they both try to build a new life under difficult circumstances. The mother's entire hope rests on her son and his career as a pianist, which she has driven forward. But it threatens to fail. Pawel loses himself in the care of his mother, longs for the love of Mirjam and encounters the merciless life of the Viennese prostitutes and the bitter poverty of a starving city. Read about a sunken dark time in the heart of Europe, about the love and hope of the young aspiring pianist Pawel in Vienna during the war and post-war period - and about his attempt to recall his childhood and youth in old age, to meet again in memory the people who loved him and whom he once loved.Review on robintolbert.com ...his memory is an interesting tapestry of love, sacrifice and history.
