Oddly enough! Germans turn down Martin Amis’ new concentration camp novel

September 17, 2014 By Kathy Shaidle

NYT:

Piero Salabè, Mr. Amis’s editor at Carl Hanser Verlag, said the publisher had turned down the book for marketing as well as literary reasons. “Our decision was based on the book’s contents as well as on economic considerations,” Mr. Salabè said. He added that the decision had “nothing to do with the Holocaust being a sensitive issue in Germany.”

This short article in the “paper of record” comes with not one but two corrections.

So far.
