Description:
As a young man in Vienna in the 1930s, Josef Mandl was a member of underground left-wing groups battling the Nazis. In New Zealand during the Second World War Mandl is judged a communist agitator and interned on Somes Island along with several other Germans and Italians. Josef makes two unsuccessful attempts to escape, and in the process discovers Wellington as a place where he might live. He finds work, masters English, marries Nancy, begins a new life. He has continuing contact with Willi, a charismatic fellow internee who is a strong anti-fascist and torments Josef for his new respectability. In his Wadestown house in the 1990s, now a successful businessman, Josef Mandl looks out to Somes Island and brings his past into focus. He visits old friends, encounters Willi now a pathetic ruin of a man, and ponders why despite his successes he feels askew from his times, a little removed by his history. Also available as an eBook

Great value/Runs small however!!
Coming from 30 years in the garment industry with a dozen in men's formal wear I can attest to this being a great value!
It is well put together/stitched but runs small so absolutely order a size up from what you would normally order.
I am not sure how they came to the inches measured but they are definitely off.
Will be donating the one I received to bless someone else and ordering the next size up!

Amazing value
Super nice quality jacket for the price... I was shocked how nice it was actually. For me it wasn't the right fit though... Amazon recommended a size M (5'9" 145lbs) and it was way too big. Was not the slimmest of slims either, so it just felt too big and I ended up returning it. But, the item itself was really nice so I still think it's a 5-star jacket. The color, fabric, and sewing were top notch. Oh, I also wasn't a fan of the faux white pocket square... to me this is a blazer that could look nice with jeans but the white pocket square makes it look a little too formal. I'd have kept it if it fit properly and remove that little piece of fabric.
