Literary Exile in the Twentieth Century: An Analysis and Biographical Dictionary, edited by Martin Tucker. Greenwood Press, 1991.

With six entries by Henrik Eger, Ph.D. on writers from German speaking countries: 
  • Stefan Heym
  • Hans Henny Jahnn
  • Hermann Kesten 
  • Else Lasker-Schüler
  • Heinrich Mann 
  • Stefan Zweig

"By emphasizing their years in exile and how those years affected their writings, Literary Exile in the Twentieth Century provides a unique and fascinating perspective on expatriate writers that cannot be gleaned from any other biographical dictionary. This excellent compilation is recommended for academic libraries, and it could also be useful in large public libraries."
