The Reader by Bernhard Schlink
4.0
This is one that will stay with me for a long time, and I'll turn it over in my head many times. I am still not sure I understand the Hanna's reason for wanting to keep her big secret a secret, it didn't seem like that big a deal.
But this book asks many questions and meditates on the relationship between the Germans that were part of the war and those who lived just after. I suppose the whole book can be taken as metaphor for two generations. but that would deny the relationship between the two main characters.
Of course, I do need to go watch the movie now.
