Synopsis: Written in an encrypted notebook while incarcerated in a Nazi insane asylum and only discovered after his death, The Drinker may be Hans Fallada’s most breathtaking piece of craftsmanship. It is an intense yet absorbing study of the descent into drunkenness by an intelligent man who fears he’s lost it all.
