A collection of six short stories that explore the moral, social, and political themes of postwar Germany, marked by Böll's sharp critical eye and empathy for the common man. An afterword by Viktor Žmegač contextualizes the works within Böll's oeuvre.
In Boll's novels, one of the central themes is the attempt to preserve basic moral values in a time of terror, as well as in a period of material prosperity and corruption.
Schwab's work renews and develops a sense of the value of antiquity, that inexhaustible source of folk fantasy that seeks to interpret and explain the world with original poetic power.
