His half-brother  Alois  who works as a hotel waiter and a salesman  has convinced him to assist in building a commercial empire based on the newly invented safety razor. Adolf moves in with Alois  his Irish wife  and their infant son and promptly inconveniences them: He is difficult  depressed  lies for days on the sofa  bungles the simplest jobs  and has not yet found himself. In episodes of disarming comedy  at every turn young Adolf becomes involved in ludicrous and embarrassing situations  so much so that he would never  for the rest of his life  mention his laughably awkward visit to England. Taking on one of historys odder incidents with her considerable imagination and wicked sense of humor  Beryl Bainbridge makes Adolf Hitler as absurd a figure in words as Charlie Chaplin made him on film.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67930112163893,"sku":"ByrdShop_0786702583","price":66.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780786702589.jpg?v=1794205456","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/young-adolf-bainbridge-beryl-9780786702589","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
