Summary

History and fate collide as the Nazis rise to power in The Night in Lisbon, a classic tale of survival from the renowned author of All Quiet on the Western Front

With the world slowly sliding into war, it is crucial that enemies of the Reich flee Europe at once. But so many routes are closed, and so much money is needed. Then one night in Lisbon, as a poor young refugee gazes hungrily at a boat bound for America, a stranger approaches him with two tickets and a story to tell. 

It is a harrowing tale of bravery and butchery, daring and death, in which the price of love is beyond measure, and the legacy of evil is infinite. As the refugee listens spellbound to the desperate teller, in a matter of hours, the two form a unique and unshakable bond - one that will last all their lives.

Critic reviews

"The world has a great writer in Erich Maria Remarque. He is a craftsman of unquestionably first rank, a man who can bend language to his will. Whether he writes of men or of inanimate nature, his touch is sensitive, firm, and sure." (The New York Times Book Review)

Slow

Audiobooks make you a hostage of the narrator. This one was hushed and dramatic but I found myself unable to really assess the story due to his influence, which I could not enjoy. It was very slow. Perhaps if I had actually read it I may feel differently.
