A Dangerous Game is a memoir of a childhood spent in the German lands east of the Oder, first under Nazi rule and then under Soviet occupation and the new Polish administration. The author recounts the war years, the flight west, and the hard resettlement that followed, from a child's point of view. It sits with other East German and expellee memoirs rather than with academic histories: personal, plain-spoken and close to daily life. Readers who want the human side of the 1945 expulsions, rather than dates and treaties, are the ones it suits.

Memoir readers respond to the child's-eye honesty and the rare ground-level view of the expulsions. Some wish for more historical framing and note that recall after many decades is uneven.
