Description

Critically acclaimed international fiction, now in paperback. 

 In February 1940, the Nazis established what would become the second largest Jewish ghetto in the Polish city of Lódz. Its chosen Mordechai Chaim Rumkowski, a sixty-three-year-old Jewish businessman and orphanage director, and the elusive, authoritarian power sustaining the ghetto's very existence. From one of Scandinavia's most critically acclaimed and bestselling authors, The Emperor of Lies chronicles the tale of Rumkowski's monarchical rule over a quarter of a million Jews. Drawing on the chronicles of life in the Lódz ghetto, Steve Sem-Sandberg captures the full panorama of human resilience, and questions the nature of good and evil.

bout the Author Steve Sem-Sandberg was born in 1958. He divides his time between Vienna and Stockholm.
