About this book

Twenty years after the Second World War, a foreign visitor arrives in Dresden to meet an old friend and instead spends the night talking with a young hotel worker. He survived the city’s destruction and Nazi concentration camps; she belongs to a generation that inherited the ruins without living through their causes. Ladislav Mňačko’s concentrated dialogue stages a reckoning between memory and innocence, asking what the post-war generation owes to truths it would rather leave buried. Originally written in Slovak as “Noční rozhovor”, this is the Arabic edition published by Mamdouh Adwan Publishing House.
