Books by Peter Weiss

Regarded by many as one of the leading works of this century, this novel documents the resistance to fascism in Europe (and within Germany) during WWII.

Originally published in German in 1978 and appearing here in English for the first time, the second volume of Peter Weiss's three-volume novel The Aesthetics of Resistance depicts anti-fascist resistance, radical proletarian political movements, and the relationship between art and resistance from the late 1930s to World War II.
