Irisches Tagebuch von Heinrich Böll
€12.00 + P&P
Irisches Tagebuch von Heinrich Böll
Heinrich Böll stattete mit diesen Aufzeichnungen den Dank ab an eine Landschaft und ihre Menschen, denen er sich seit seinem ersten Besuch auf der Insel im Jahr 1954 wahlverwandschaftlich verbunden fühlte. Die Stuttgarter Zeitung schrieb öber das 'Irische Tagebuch': "Das Geheimnis dieses Buches, des liebenswertesten Buches von Heinrich Böll, ist, daß kaum ein Wort über die verzwickte Ökonomie und die noch verzwicktere Geschichte dieses kleinen Staates gesagt wird und daß dennoch das ganze Irland in diesem Tagebuch eingefangen zu sein scheint."
