In this story about a Greek couple in Nazi-occupied Athens who must share their living quarters with a German officer, Wescott stages an intense and unsettling drama of accommodation and rejection, resistance and compulsion—an account of political oppression and spiritual struggle that is also a parable about the costs of closeted identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New York Review Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47055783788784,"sku":"9781590170816","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781590170816_p0.jpg?v=1763806573","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781590170816","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
