A hardened young veteran from the First World War, Ludwig now works for a monument company, selling stone markers to the survivors of deceased loved ones. Though ambivalent about his job, he suspects there's more to life than earning a living off other people's misfortunes. A self-professed poet, Ludwig soon senses a growing change in his fatherland, a brutality brought upon it by inflation. When he falls in love with the beautiful but troubled Isabelle, Ludwig hopes he has found a soul who will offer him salvation-who will free him from his obsession to find meaning in a war-torn world. But there comes a time in every man's life when he must choose to live-despite the prevailing thread of history horrifically repeating itself.

I has read this years ago and I still find it astonishing how little this book is known. And this version is just delightful.
