About the book
A family caravan, a note discovered among old papers and a rumour about a search for missing Nazis provide the starting points for The Last Gypsy. In his author’s note, Wilton Morley describes a novel built from fact, fiction and rumour, following the aftermath of the Holocaust and the desire for revenge.
The story opens at an encampment north of Paris in 1943. A policeman arrives at night to warn its leader of a raid planned for the following morning, offering reassurances that make obedience sound like safety. From that uneasy encounter, the novel enters a world of persecution, survival and unsettled accounts. Its historical setting frames a fictional story about people living with the consequences of what has been done to them.
