Drach

Drach knows. With little Josef he watches a pig slaughter in October 1906; the scream and the taste of sausage soup will come back to the boy years later, returning to Silesia after the war. Nikodem, a successful architect with a five-year-old daughter, is leaving his wife for another woman, though Drach sees her slipping away. Between them lie two families and a century of wars and uprisings.
