The suddenly ignited romance between a fifteen-year-old teenager, a boy from a professor's family, and an older woman abruptly ended when she disappeared from the city without warning. Eight years later, he, now a graduating law student, sees her again—among the former guards of a women's concentration camp at the trial against Nazi criminals. But this is not the only secret that has been revealed to the protagonist of Bernhard Schlink's novel "The Reader"…
