Description
Hugo Baumgartner is a man who doesn’t belong anywhere. He’s a Berlin Jew who travelled to India to escape the Nazis and, after years spent the mercy of his past and his tumultuous adopted land, he has now retired to a seedy cat-filled apartment behind Bombay’s Taj Hotel. But destiny has not finished with Baumgartner, in this haunting tale of the afflictions of exile.
