About this ebook
Growing up in 1920's Vienna, playing along the Danube Meadow, little Xandi's childhood was idyllic. In just a few years however, his world would be shattered with the rise of anti-Semitism and the Anschluss. In the sequel to And God Created Bedbugs Too, Hermann Kauders puts down these remarkable experiences into words in this wry, often humorous, occasionally tragic but ultimately life-affirming work.
