A fox terrier makes history as a Hollywood star, circus attraction... and the Führer's lap dog.
Jonathan Crown was born in Berlin and has since led a nomadic life, not unlike Sirius, the hero of his first novel. So far, his travels have taken him to Zurich, New York, Saint-Paul de Vence and Sorrento. He currently lives in Berlin with his dachshund, Kelly.
Crown has written a lovely novel about Nazi Germany. The success of
his light approach to serious subject matter owes much to Sirius...
but it's clear that beneath the comic veneer, a grave imperative
drives his storytelling'

Delightful... Crown has presented a thoroughly enjoyable story
which dances gracefully between comedy and tragedy, all the while
retelling history as it could have been, and almost was'
*Women24 (South Africa)*
Unique and unforgettable... a genuinely sweet and uplifting
novel'
*Catholic Herald*
Rarely a book is so intelligent, funny and cute at the same
time
*Kultur Spiegel*
Crown successfully pulls off the high-wire act of giving the horror
of the Nazi era a tragicomic turn
*Kleine Zeitung*
For those who like wit, heart and wordly wisdom
