鈥淪chlump鈥� tells the story of a German teenager during the First World War, from the enthusiasm of volunteering to his horror at fighting in the trenches. The semi-autobiographical anti-war novel was published anonymously in 1928. Five years later it was banned by the Nazis. During the Second World War, the author Hans Herbert Grimm joined the Nazi Party, some say this was to preserve his anonymity. He worked as a translator during the Second World War but on returning home, he was barred from working as a teacher because of his Nazi membership. In 1950, he was summoned to a meeting in Weimar by government officials. To this day, we don't know what was discussed, but two days later, Grimm killed himself. Grimm was only identified as the author in 2013. The book has now been translated and published in the UK. Professor Karen Leeder is lecturer of Modern German Literature at New College Oxford. Jamie Bulloch is a historian and translator of 鈥淪chlump鈥�.
