The Boxer is oddly structured as an interview of a camp survivor Aron (Arno) Blank recording his post-war life for a young interviewer over the course of two years. After losing his wife and two daughters, and surviving concentration camp, the post war life involves several women, men friends his age, several jobs, and the raising and nurturing a boy he barely remembers, his son, who was lost to him from age two and who he finds after the war now age ten. Jurek Becker's biography is that of Mark, the son, and this seems to be his way of interviewing his father, imagining his fathers life, inserting himself into the story only as the son Mark, and as the interviewer. This is a special book with no pretense, lots of divots, missing pieces, and for what is not there as well as what is, it is memorable. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Released from a concentration camp after the war, Aron Blank looks for and eventually finds the only other surviving member of his family, his son Mark, whom he was forced to abandon when Mark was only two years old. Working first in the black market and later as a Russian interpreter, Aron tries to rebuild a normal life for himself and his son in East Berlin. Decades later, with Mark lost in the Six-Day War, Aron tells his story to a young interviewer--the flow of his poignant narrative occasionally interrupted by their brief exchanges, which are peppered with humor. Written with the understated elegance that brought Becker worldwide acclaim for Jacob the Liar, this is a rare portrait of Jewish life in postwar Germany and a profoundly human story of survival, friendship, and fatherly love.
