The New York Review of Books called Austerlitz "one of the most gripping writers imaginable." It is the narrative of a man's quest to solve the main mystery of his life. It is an internationally renowned classic. Little Jacques Austerlitz is raised by a Welsh Methodist pastor and his wife in England during the summer of 1939, but they don't reveal anything about his true parentage to him. The ephemeral memories come back to him when he is a much older man, and he follows their path back to the place he left behind fifty years before, only partially understanding the urge. There, he battles to save his legacy from extinction in the face of the abyss in the center of twentieth-century Europe.
