Reviews
Anne Richter has written a soul wrenching beautifully moving book. This is definitely one that you will remember well after you finished reading it., Anne Richter writes elegantly and sympathetically about her characters and skillfully suggests the murky chill that pervades their environment., I don't know that I've read a more moving piece of postwar German fiction - and this includes Gunter Grass's best efforts., Distant Signs is a hugely thought provoking read, one which I think will linger on in my head long after I've finished reading it. It's hard to put into words precisely what it was about the writing that captured my attention the most, perhaps the gentle tone or maybe the seriousness of the topic being discussed, but it all culminates in the exploration of themes and characters that draws the reader in and holds them fast., This is a richly rewarding book, an assured first novel that engages the reader both with its emotional depth and with the light it throws on a crucial period of European history. As we remember the thirtieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall and see new walls being erected all around us, this novel comes as a timely reminder of how such barriers can shape lives.

Synopsis
Rooted in the author's experience witnessing the fall of the Berlin Wall, Distant Signs explores the complexity of familial bonds, love, and life behind and beyond the iron curtain. Against the backdrop of seismic political upheaval in 1960s East Germany Margret, a professor's daughter hailing from the city, and Hans, a man rooted in a tranquil Thuringian forest village are embroiled in a family saga. Their love story is colored by the clash of their disparate origins and the lingering emotional wounds inflicted by a war-torn childhood. As historical events play out, the secrets of two families are revealed. Anne Richter's exquisite prose translated from German by Douglas Irving, paints a vivid portrait of a society marked by change while paying homage to the quiet strength that exists within the most trying of times.
