The lived experiences of two authors, Siegfried von Vegesack and Werner Bergengruen, provide a fascinating lens into the reality of migration and identity in twentieth-century Europe. Forced to leave their Baltic homeland and forge new lives in Germany, both authors contended with life under the Nazi regime and the social upheaval that took place after its fall.

By charting how their writing interpolated the period's many ruptures, this study offers an unrivalled insight into the complexities of identity and nationhood in a conflict-torn continent.
