'Gaudy, wild, raw, amusing, rollicking and ragged, boiling with life, on terms with death and evil - but in the end, contrite and fully tired of a world wasting itself in blood, pillage and lust' Thomas MannA story of war in all its absurdity and horror, this incomparable novel describes the fortunes of a young boy travelling through a world ravaged by conflict, and the terrible things he witnesses. Written by someone who fought in the Thirty Years War which decimated Europe in the seventeenth century, it combines brutal, documentary realism with fantastical, knockabout humour to depict a universe turned upside down.
