From his third birthday when he received a tin drum, it has become the means of his expression, allowing him to draw forth memories from his past as well as from the Nazi era. Oskar's imaginative distortion and exaggeration of history reveals a startlingly true portrayal of the human situation. AU - Grass, Günter, AU - Mitchell, Breon. AU - Garcia, Paul Michael.
