Crime

Schirach, Ferdinand von, 1964-2023
Books
A retired small-town doctor who resorts to the garden axe when his patience with his cruel wife runs out. An older man calmly despatches two Neo-Nazi thugs on a railway platform. Two men inadvertently steal a priceless Japanese tea bowl with brutal consequences. In 'Crime', our narrator, a nameless lawyer, invites us to read an extraordinary dossier of violent and unspeakable acts. All the crimes have one thing in common: the guilty are never convicted in a court of law. But however heinous the crime, human circumstances behind events can tell a different story.
