The Reader by Bernhard Schlink

The Reader by Bernhard Schlink is a novel set in post-World War II Germany, exploring themes of guilt, shame, and the complexity of moral responsibility. The story follows Michael Berg, a young boy who embarks on a secret affair with an older woman, Hanna Schmitz. Years later, Michael, now a law student, discovers Hanna on trial for Nazi war crimes, leading him to confront difficult questions about love, justice, and the legacy of the Holocaust.

The novel delves deeply into how the post-war generation grapples with the atrocities committed during the war, and the personal and collective guilt that lingers. It’s both a coming-of-age story and a meditation on the moral consequences of history.
