The Assault by Harry Mulisch

The Assault by Harry Mulisch

An instant classic challenging notions of post-war innocence and guilt that sold over 200,000 copies on first publication in Dutch

Harry Mulisch belongs to the first rank of Dutch novelists of his generation -- JM. Coetzee, Nobel Laureate and two-time Booker Prize winner
As a parable of war, whose guilts and neuroses reach well into the present, this novel is so persuasive. It is Mulisch's triumph to have revealed all this with an X-ray cunning * The New York Times Book Review *
A genuinely great man of letters, the writer many acknowledge as Holland's finest novelist * Guardian *
Artful in its study of postponed knowledge and nightmare * Kirkus *
Mulisch is a rarity ... an instinctively psychological novelist -- John Updike

Harry Kurt Victor Mulisch (1927-2010) was a Dutch writer. He wrote more than 80 novels, plays, essays, poems, and philosophical reflections. Mulisch's works have been translated into 38 languages to date.
