A Brutal, Breathtaking Literary Debut
„Who They Was” is hailed as one of the most compelling literary debuts of recent years.
Gabriel Krauze’s novel is a brutal, at times overwhelming, and breathtaking story about a life steeped in violence, lived in a constant rush, driven by an unquenchable desire to possess more than anyone could possibly have. It is a work that is simultaneously cruel, painfully honest, and literarily dazzling.
