During the ceremony, a relative noted they were there because of Max and Edith’s sacrifice. The fate of their son, Hermann Pollnow (familiarly “Mutzi”; in Australia he was strongly encouraged to anglicise his name to Harry Peters), is the subject of his granddaughter Tess Scholfield-Peters’ semi-fictional book.

Netflix's movie "Wicked Little Letters" has captivated audiences with its intriguing tale of small-town scandal, mystery, and justice. The first 20 minutes were like slap-stick stupidity but, after that, it started to hold my interest. Nevertheless, beneath the fictionalized narrative lies a true story that took place in the quiet seaside town of Littlehampton, England, in the 1920s.

Before you read a word of “How to Leave the House” by Nathan Newman, it may help to know that a TV adaptation is already in the works. This is a book that unfolds like it’s destined for the small screen. “It was a cinematic sunset: pinks, oranges and periwinkle blues… Beneath it all was lonely Natwest, a single figure on the empty street…” That passage is about midway through the book, but you get the point. There are other parts that read like stage directions and the novel’s point of view switches from inside the mind of our “hero,” Natwest, to the perspectives of various town residents he encounters during the day.
