Hinterland

A poignant, heartbreaking story depicting the quiet heroism of ordinary people in the face of suffering, and the struggle to live a normal life as the world falls apart around them.

Winner of the Schlegel-Tieck Prize for German Translation

'Both a great anti-war novel and a love story, full of tenderness – as around it the world shatters.' – Der Spiegel, 'Novel of the Year'


The year is 1944 and Veit Kolbe, a young German soldier, injured fighting in Russia, is recovering in a small village below Drachenwand mountain in Austria. Here he meets Margot and Margarete, two young women who share his hope that sometime, sooner or later, life will begin again.

The war is lost but how long will it take before it finally comes to its end? Arno Geiger’s Hinterland, translated from the German by Jamie Bulloch, tells of Veit’s nightmares and the strangely normal life of the village, of the Brazilian who dreams of returning to Rio de Janeiro, of the landlady and her rallying calls, of Margarete the teacher with whom Veit falls in love, but who doesn’t return his affection.

But when Veit’s wounds are healed his next call-up orders arrive. The military outlook for Germany and Austria looks increasingly grim and Veit’s luck has run out . . .

Translated from the German by Jamie Bulloch

'A great anti-war novel, in the middle of which a love story . . . develops, full of tenderness - as around it the world shatters . . . This impressive, subtle book' - Der Spiegel

'A profound, distinctive and timeless investigation into what concerns everyone of us: aging and illness, home and family. A meditation on the things we find hard to deal with. A great work of literature about what makes life worth living no matter what' - Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

Worked great in Italy!
Color: White/grey-Type L
Used them on our recent 7 day trip to Italy. Every hotel had the 3-prong outlet so these were perfect. Charged up all our phones, iPads, and used them to convert to 120V for other appliances. Highly recommend!

Perfect travel device for travel in Italy!
Color: White/grey-Type L
We traveled all over Italy and these worked perfectly everywhere. All the ports were helpful and reduced the number of adapters we needed. We brought a 2-prong style as well, that had larger posts and was supposed to be equally universal but it was definitely not. I would definitely recommend this to anyone and recommend you skip the 2 prong style. The only other consideration is that when you unplug a lamp or something else to use the plug then you may want an additional way to plug the lamp back in and the additional US outlets on the side won’t help, since the lamp will the the same European 3 prong plug. That would definitely be a bulky adapter, but might be worth having one in the group.
