The Hourglass
Kis, Danilo / Manheim, Ralph![The Hourglass](https://support.digitalhusky.com/media/annotations/sorted/924/9243235/CHSBZCOP039243235.jpg)
Of all Danilo Kis's books, HOURGLASS, the account of the final months in one man's life before he is sent to a concentration camp, is generally considered his masterpiece. "A finely sustained, complex fictional performance. It is full of pain and rage and gusto and joy of living, at once side-splitting and a heartbreaker".--WASHINGTON POST BOOK WORLD.
