About This Item
In 1942, the s.s. Broda, packed with refugees, broke up and sank off the Turkish coast. The men, women and children on board - refugees from Hitler's concentration camps bound for Palestine - were not the victims of enemy action but of British intransigence and Turkish officialdom, which forced the vessel out to sea when she was unseaworthy. Only two people out of six hundred survived. One of them, washed up on a lonely beach, bore the name of Jacob Lindmann.
Twenty years later, the man called Jacob Lindmann lives alone in a dreary lodging-house in Shepherd's Bush.
The shockwaves of his eventual breakdown reach back twenty years to reveal a totally different aspect of the Broda affair.
