"Alexander Reschke, a German professor of art history, and Alexandra Piatkowska, a Polish restorer, met All Souls' Day in Gdansk in 1989 and became a couple. Both were in their sixties and widowed. During a joint visit to the cemetery, they come up with the idea that the Germans, who once fled and were expelled from Danzig, should be given the opportunity to find their final resting place in a cemetery in their former homeland. ...The German-Polish Cemetery Society is founded, and an unspeakable story begins."
This work was published as "The Call of the Toad" in 1992 and adapted into a 2005 film ("Unkenrufe – Zeit der Versöhnung").
