Publisher's summary
The classic thriller of Dr. Josef Mengele's nightmarish plot to restore the Third Reich.
Alive and hiding in South America, the fiendish Nazi Dr. Josef Mengele gathers a group of former colleagues for a horrifying project. Barry Koehler, a young investigative journalist, gets wind of the scheme and informs famed Nazi hunter Yakov Liebermann, but before he can relay the evidence, Koehler is killed.
Thus Ira Levin opens one of the strangest and most masterful novels of his career. Why has Mengele marked a number of harmless aging men for murder? What is the hidden link that binds them? What interest can they possibly hold for their killers: Six former SS men dispatched from South America by the most wanted Nazi still alive, the notorious "Angel of Death"? One man alone must answer these questions and stop the killings - Liebermann, himself aging and thought by some to be losing his grip on reality.
At the heart of The Boys from Brazil lies a frightening contemporary nightmare, chilling and all too possible.

Story
Considered one of the great dystopian novels - alongside Anthony Burgess's A Clockwork Orange and Aldous Huxley's A Brave New World - Ira Levin's frightening glimpse into the future continues to fascinate listeners even 40 years after publication. The story is set in a seemingly perfect global society. Uniformity is the defining feature; there is only one language and all ethnic groups have been eugenically merged into one race called "The Family".

"If Robert Littell didn't invent the American spy novel," says Tom Clancy, "he should have." In this spectacular Cold-War-as-Alice-in-Wonderland epic, Littell, "the American le Carre," takes us down the rabbit hole and into the labyrinthine world of espionage that has been the CIA for the last half-century. "Ostensibly a single novel, The Company can also be listened to as an anthology of cracking good spy stories," says ( Publishers Weekly).

Paul Madvig was a cheerfully corrupt ward-heeler who aspired to something better: the daughter of Senator Ralph Bancroft Henry, the heiress to a dynasty of political purebreds. Did he want her badly enough to commit murder? And if Madvig was innocent, which of his dozens of enemies was doing an awfully good job of framing him? Dashiell Hammett’s tour de force of detective fiction combines an airtight plot, authentically venal characters, and writing of telegraphic crispness. A one-time detective and a master of deft understatement, Hammett invented the noir crime novel.

Who exactly is Danziger? He's a writer of letters for illiterate immigrants on Manhattan's Lower East Side - "a steadfast practitioner of concealing and forgetting" for his clients, and perhaps for himself: He hints at a much worldlier past. What and whoever he really is or has been, he has a seemingly boundless knowledge of the city and its denizens. And he knows much more than the mere identity of the floating corpse.

The story is set in a seemingly perfect global society.

Did you know that there are more penises than women in the Bayeux Tapestry? That the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381 was started and propelled by women who were protesting a tax on women? Or that Charles Darwin believed not just that women were naturally inferior to men, but that they’d evolve to become ever more inferior? These are just a few of the startling findings you will learn from listening to Philippa Gregory’s Normal Women. In this ambitious book, she tells the story of England over 900 years, for the very first time placing women—some fifty per cent of the population—center stage.

Great combination of history in suspense!
If you’re interested in World War II history, or the aftermath of the Holocaust, but with a twist, I would definitely recommend this book. Or if you appreciate mysteries with a global slant, you will definitely appreciate this book. I will admit that, as someone who picked it up because I love this writer his other work, I found the historical aspect a little bit slow to get into. It’s clear from the outset that there is a conspiracy at work, but the start to the book did feel a little slow. However, all of the history and politics were beautifully integrated and easy to follow even for someone who is a complete non-expert, and the core of the conspiracy was more than worth waiting for! The premise is really very fascinating! In the end, as Leavins tend to be, is disturbing in a completely wonderful way.

Don't let anyone tell you the endings!
Without risking a spoiler, this SyFy classic ranks among the best for its conformity to the science and scientific thinking of the time it was written. The Boys from Brazil takes the reader on a hunt for the infamous Dr. Mengele, a.k.a. the Angel of Death, while immersing the reader both in an ongoing mystery and philosophical questions about human nature.
NB: If you have seen the movie, be aware that it was very true to the book--more so than the typical Hollywood adaptation of that time. There are elaborations and a few bits shuffled in the timeline, but no matter which one you do first, the movie or the book, if you enjoyed one, you will probably also enjoy the other.

Classic Nazi-hunting thriller that holds up
This is undoubtedly Levin’s masterpiece. One part political thriller, one part mystery, with a dash of alternate history–this could have easily resulted in a confused jumble of ideas. Instead he achieved timelessness. And fortunately for us the perfect narrator–Prebble–was chosen for the job.

I saw this movie a few years ago and was fascinated by the idea of it all. I wanted to read the book for more detail as movies often times leave out valuable information. Not only does this story hold up after all these years, the very thought of the progress of science and technology makes this story even more interesting in 2019.
