The Fox in the Attic

Richard Hughes

„The Fox in the Attic“, geschrieben vom walisischen Schriftsteller Richard Hughes und veröffentlicht im Jahr 1961, ist der erste Teil des unvollendeten Romans „The Human Predicament“.

Der Roman beginnt im Jahr 1923. Der Protagonist, ein junger walisischer Aristokrat namens Augustine Penry-Herbert, entdeckt die Leiche eines jungen Mädchens und wird fälschlicherweise verdächtigt, etwas mit ihrem Unfalltod zu tun zu haben. Augustinus beschließt, England zu verlassen und entfernte Verwandte in Deutschland zu besuchen. Während des Aufstiegs des Nationalsozialismus, einschließlich des Münchner Putsches, verliebt er sich in seine Cousine Mitzi. Am Ende des Romans betritt Mitzi, die ihr Augenlicht verloren hat, ein Kloster und Augustine kehrt nach England zurück.
