description: This novel marks the end of postwar resignation and the begining of a new era in German literature. Its technique is at once satire and a setling of accounts with the cultural and historical megalomania that culminate in Nazism. Everything in this novel is original, not because the author gratuistously cought novelty but because it was necessary to reinvent language and narrative to describe the newly invented horrors.
