When Kurt Weber inherits his great-uncle's lakeside house, he finds traces of the dark secrets of his family's past. The early inhabitants of the house haunt his dreams nightly. And one day a ghostlike woman appears before him, hiding herself in a room that had been kept locked throughout his childhood. Inside, Kurt finds a hidden stash of photographs, letters, and documents. As he deciphers them, he gradually understands the degree of complicity in wartime horrors of his family and his neighbors. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that the entire village adheres to an old and widely understood agreement not to expose the many members in the community who were involved with a nearby prison camp during World War II. This knowledge has wrapped the entire community-those involved, and those who know of the involvement-in inescapable guilt for generations. Translated from the original German by Tess Lewis, Ludwig's Room is a story of love, betrayal, honor, and cowardice, as well as the burden of history and the moral demands of the present.
