This novel was written in 1946, but wasn’t translated into English until 2009. The title, Every Man Dies Alone, tells you nothing about the book itself. The cover photograph shows a young man and woman just as they are about to embrace. The back flap tells you that the photo was taken in Germany in 1940.

Quotes by Mary Frances Coady (?)

“Never send off any piece of writing the moment it is finished. Put it aside. Take on something else. Go back to it a month later and re-read it. Examine each sentence and ask “Does this say precisely what I mean? Is it capable of misunderstanding? Have I used a cliché where I could have invented a new and therefore asserting and memorable form? Have I repeated myself and wobbled round the point when I could have fixed the whole thing in six rightly chosen words? Am I using words in their basic meaning or in a loose plebeian way?” …”
― Mary Frances Coady, Merton and Waugh: A Monk, A Crusty Old Man, and The Seven Storey Mountain
