Fiction
All his life, Elijah Goldstein has idolized his charismatic
Uncle Poxl. Intensely magnetic, cultured and brilliant,
Poxl takes Elijah under his wing, introducing him to opera
and art and literature. But when Poxl publishes a memoir of
how he was forced to leave his home north of Prague at the
start of WWII and then avenged the deaths of his parents by
flying RAF bombers over Germany during the war, killing
thousands of German citizens, Elijah watches as the
carefully constructed world his uncle has created begins to
unravel. As Elijah discovers the darker truth of Poxl’s past, he
comes to understand that the fearless war hero he always
revered is in fact a broken and devastated man who suffered
unimaginable losses from which he has never recovered.
