This is the story of innocence betrayed, of passion and curiosity about the world of machines turned nightmarish and punished by the cruelty of which only humans are capable. It is also a story of survival and courage. Eric Lomax was tortured by the Japanese on the Burma-Siam Railway. Fifty years later he met one of his tormentors.

Эта книга поражает искренностью — все, что в ней написано, правда. Во время Второй мировой войны британский офицер Эрик Ломакс попадает в плен. После страшных пыток и унижений в японском концлагере он уже не может вернуться к прежней жизни. Мысль о возмездии не покидает его. Он уверен, что его мучители заслуживают самого страшного наказания, и особенную ненависть он питает к переводчику, присутствовавшему на всех пытках. Его деревянный, бесстрастный голос стоит у Ломакса в ушах.
И вот они встречаются — два глубоких старика. Один всю жизнь мечтает отомстить, другой — замолить грехи.
И Ломакс понимает, что, к его собственному удивлению, у него нет однозначного ответа на вопрос, может ли ненависть быть вечной.
