Blood Brothers

Originally published in 1932 and banned by the Nazis one year later, 'Blood Brothers' follows a gang of young boys bound together by unwritten rules and mutual loyalty. Told in stark, unsparing detail, Haffner's story delves into the illicit underworld of Berlin on the eve of Hitler's rise to power, describing how these blood brothers move from one petty crime to the next, spending their nights in underground bars and makeshift hostels, struggling together to survive the harsh realities of gang life.
