Heidegger's Glasses: A Novel - Hardcover

Praise for Heidegger's Glasses

"A tour de force whose imagery haunts the reader long after the final page is turned." --Jim Moret, author of The Last Day of My Life

"This is stunning work, full of mystery and strange tenderness. Thaisa Frank has written one of the most compelling stories of the Nazi regime since D. M. Thomas's Pictures at an Exhibition. It is a book that will haunt you." --Dan Chaon, author of Await Your Reply

"Frank's vision of the Holocaust is original and startling, with compelling characters and a narrative that's both explosive and ponderous."--Publisher's Weekly (starred review)

"A spellbinding, innovative, intellectually compelling tour-de-force. Thaisa Frank's imagination is boundless: she enchants and horrifies and moves us, often on the same page." --Michelle Huneven, author of Blame

A compound of German translators tasked with answering letters written to those eventually killed in Nazi concentration camps is confounded when it receives a letter from the noted philosopher Martin Heidegger, written to his optometrist, who is imprisoned in Auschwitz. By an award-winning author.
