One character in this novel repeatedly reads Otto Weininger's opus Sex and Character which argues that women have no souls. Another of its characters is raised by the gypsy Bidandengero and is overweight until being encased in a snowman by a bully causes her to become a graceful ballerina. That character, Jenny, is adopted by the teacher Dr. Brunies who is sent to a concentration camp after eating "Cebion" tablets intended for his students. This novel's second section is narrated by Harry Liebenau, who in a series of love letters to his cousin Tulla Pokriefke recounts how Eddi Amsel constructs several mechanical scarecrows for one of Jenny's ballets. This novel also recounts how Walter Matern returns to post-war Germany to punish Nazis despite having served in the SS himself and having given Prinz to Hitler as a pet. For 10 points, name this sequel to Cat and Mouse and the The Tin Drum, the final book in the Danzig Trilogy by Gunter Grass.
