In seinem frühen Roman schildert Heinrich Böll den Krieg als eine Krankheit. Es ist daher nur folgerichtig, daß er nicht die Mechanismen einer Schlacht beschreiben wollte, sondern den einzelnen Menschen in den Vordergrund stellt. Böll geht vom Detail aus und öffnet so den Blick auf das Ganze. Er zeichnet seine Gestalten, Landser und Generäle, SS-Führer und gehetzte Juden, Frauen und Mädchen im Hinterland, ohne zu verzerren oder zu idealisieren. Viele Bücher sind gegen den Krieg geschrieben worden. Aber nicht alle wurden so verstanden. Ungewollt ließen sie einen Rest von Sinngebung oder gar eine Faszination am Grauen und an der zerstörenden Gewalt des Krieges zu. Bölls Roman ist...

No register to sign, no questions asked, and for five bucks a man could have three hours of undisturbed, illicit lovemaking. Then one evening a man with a knife turned the love nest into a death chamber. The carpet was soaked with blood - but where was the corpse? Meanwhile, a beautiful, promiscuous woman is missing - along with the bundle of cash she`d had in her pocket. The truth behind it all will keep even veteran mystery fans guessing through the very last page.

This collection of lesser-known early short fiction - ranging from absurd humorous sketches to psychological dramas and tragic tales - demonstrates Anton Chekhov`s mastery of the genre, with stories about marital infidelity, betrayal, deception and love in its various forms. Although varying in tone and purpose, what these tales have in common is a profound and subtle understanding of the human condition, in its farcical and melancholy aspects, couched in Chekhov`s trademark minimalist style.
