December of 1944, the Red Army entered Budapest to begin one of the bloodiest sieges of the Second World War. By February, the siege was over, but its effects were to be felt for decades afterward. Siege 13 is a collection of thirteen linked stories about this terrible time in history, both its historical moment, but also later, as a legacy of silence, haunting, and trauma that shadows the survivors.
The memoir of an international lawyer who is held in a Communist prison under bogus pretenses in the 1950’s and is transformed into a schizophrenic through the use of a truth serum. Follow his story as he plunges into the despair of schizophrenia and re-emerges from it. The stunning part of this tale is that he remembers what happens to him.
