In this innovative novel, based on the true story of Oswald Rufeisen, a Polish Jew secretly aids hundreds of Jews in escaping the ghetto, all the while surviving by working as an interpreter for the Gestapo.

After the war, he converts to Catholicism, becomes a Carmelite priest, and eventually emigrates to Israel.

Through a unique narrative structure composed of letters, documents, and diary entries, Daniel Stein, Interpreter explores themes of identity, faith, and the human capacity for resilience and compassion.

This epic biographical novel based on true events shares a “moving depiction of how Holocaust survivors struggle to rebuild their lives” (Historical Novel Society).
