[quote=Anonymous]I just finished The Director by Daniel Kehlmann and I highly recommend. It's by a German author and is historical fiction loosely based on the life of film director G.W. Pabst. He had left Germany before WWII but goes back right before the war begins to help his ailing mother and gets stuck there and is made to make movies approved by the Nazi regime. The book is a real exploration of "looking the other way", valuing art over politics, personal responsibility, etc. The first half I was thinking that it was a fine book, but what's all the fuss about, and then the last third just circled back on so many things and made it an incredibly smart, interesting, and special book.
