Crabwalk (2002), published in German as Im Krebsgang, is a novella by German author Günter Grass, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1999. Born in 1927 in the Free City of Danzig, Grass explores the effects of the past on the present: in this novel, he interweaves various strands and combines fact and fiction in exploring the lack of attention to German victimhood in their losses in World War II.
