520    "Once upon a time there was a father who, because he had 
       grown old, called together his sons and daughters-four, 
       five, six, eight in number-and finally convinced them, 
       after long hesitation, to do as he wished. Now they are 
       sitting around a table and begin to talk…" In a great 
       literary experiment, Nobel Prize winner Günter Grass 
       writes in the voices of his eight children as they record 
       memories of their childhoods, of growing up, and of their 
       father, who was always at work on a new book, always at 
       the margins of their lives. Memories contradictory, 
       critical, loving, accusatory-they piece together an 
       intimate picture of this most public of men, a shadowy but
       loving figure. There is one constant though: Marie, a 
       family friend and photographer whose snapshots taken with 
       an old-fashioned Agfa box camera provide the author with 
       inspiration for his novels. But her images offer much 
       more; they reveal a truth beyond the ordinary detail of 
       life, depict the future, tell what might have been, and 
       grant the wishes, in visual form, of those photographed. 
       Marie's camera thus becomes a way for Grass to speak in 
       the voices of his children's hidden selves-their dreams, 
       their disappointments, their secret desires and fears-and 
       to see his own life from unexpected perspectives. 
       Recalling J. M. Coetzee's Summertime and Umberto Eco's The
       Mysterious Flame of Queen Loana, The Box is an inspired 
       and daring work of fiction. In its candor, wit, and 
       earthiness, it is Grass at his best.
