«Katz und Maus» is the novel by Günter Grass published by Süddeutsche Zeitung in hardback (142 pages, in German).
In Danzig during the Second World War, Pilenz reconstructs the life of his classmate Joachim Mahlke, whose prominent Adam's apple makes him a target of mockery. To hide it, he resorts to objects such as a screwdriver or a medal, practises gymnastics and diving, and finds refuge in a stranded minesweeper. Guilt and identity run through the narrative.
Second instalment of the Danzig Trilogy, originally published in 1961. This edition belongs to the Süddeutsche Zeitung Bibliothek, volume 3.
Günter Wilhelm Grass was a German novelist, poet, playwright, illustrator, graphic artist, sculptor, and recipient of the 1999 Nobel Prize in Literature.
