Set in Weimar Germany soon after Germany's catastrophic loss of World War I, the story follows young veteran Wolf, a handsome, amiable and shiftless young man, addicted to the thrill of gambling. Recklessly losing everything in Berlin, a city in chaos, he flees to the countryside. It is here he find his redemption, finding gainful employment and healing himself, away from the temptations of the city.
Fast-moving as a thriller, fascinating as the best historical fiction, and with lyrical prose that packs emotional punch, Wolf Among Wolves is the equal of Fallada's acclaimed Every Man Dies Alone (Alone in Berlin) as an absorbing work of important literature.
