Their new home is even lovelier than the one they left behind, and best of all right on their doorstep are some of the finest craftsmen from all over Europe. Frau Hahn and the other officers’ wives living in this small community are encouraged to order anything they desire, whether new curtains made from the finest French fabrics, or furniture designed to the most exacting specifications. Life here in Buchenwald would appear to be idyllic. Lying just beyond the forest that surrounds them so close and yet so remote is the looming presence of a work camp. Frau Hahn’s husband, SS Sturmbannfuhrer Dietrich Hahn, is to take up a powerful new position as the camp’s administrator. As the prison population begins to rise, the job becomes ever more consuming. Corruption is rife at every level, the supplies are inadequate, and the sewerage system is under increasing strain. When Frau Hahn is forced into an unlikely and poignant alliance with one of Buchenwald’s prisoners, Dr Lenard Weber, her naive obtuseness about what is going on so close at hand around her is challenged. A decade earlier, Dr Weber had invented a machine: the Sympathetic Vitaliser. At the time he had believed that its subtle resonances might cure cancer. But does it really work? One way or another whether it works or not it might yet save a life. A tour de force about the evils of obliviousness, Remote Sympathy compels us to question our continuing and willful ability to look the other way in a world that is once more in thrall to the idea that everything even facts, truth and morals is relative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c!--kaikora_description--\u003e\n  \u003cli id=\"tab2\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"text-align: center;background-color: #8CB490;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781776923144\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTe Herenga Waka University Press\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImprint\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTe Herenga Waka University Press\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAvailability date\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e05 March 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebooks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"text-align: center;background-color: #8CB490;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCatherine Chidgey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFor more information on our shipping policy follow \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/folders.co.nz\/pages\/delivery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003ethis link\u003c\/a\u003e and for our returns policy \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/folders.co.nz\/pages\/online-returns-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eclick here.\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c!--kaikora_description--\u003e \n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c!--kaikora_description--\u003e\n    ","brand":"Upstart Press Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49537854374125,"sku":"9781776923144","price":22.39,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0541\/2565\/8281\/files\/Remote_Sympathy_9302494511341_1_9d3083cb-bed6-4f69-9f69-c75c962034e2.png?v=1773371696","url":"https:\/\/marstonmoor.co.nz\/products\/remote-sympathy","provider":"Marston Moor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
