The Zone of Interest

THE NOVEL THAT INSPIRED THE OSCAR WINNING FILM

Amidst the horrors of Auschwitz, German officer Angelus Thomsen has found love.

But, unfortunately for Thomsen, the object of his affection is already married—to none other than his camp commandant, Paul Doll.

As Thomsen and Doll’s wife pursue their passion, the gears of Nazi Germany’s Final Solution grind relentlessly around them. Meanwhile, Doll, riven by suspicion, finds his dignity in disrepute and his reputation on the line. Determined to restore order to the chaos that surrounds him, he must take matters into his own hands.

Praise for the novel:

‘It is exceptionally brave…. Shakespearean…. It’s exciting; it’s alive; it’s more than slightly mad. As the title suggests, it is dreadfully interesting.’
