Book introduction:
Sigi Iepsen, a juvenile delinquent, was put in a solitary cell and punished for writing the composition "Happiness due diligence". He recalled how his father, a policeman in a village in northern Germany, meticulously carried out the orders of the Nazi authorities, monitored a local painter, prevented him from painting and confiscated his works. This painter with a sense of justice is an old friend of the police family and once saved the police's life. Out of sympathy, little Siegel helped the painter hide. After the war, the stubborn rural police continued to search and burn the painter's Tibetan paintings, which made Siji suffer from phobia. Fearing that his paintings would be destroyed, he continued to steal the painter's paintings and was sent to the labor camp as a juvenile delinquent after being discovered. ...
The works are based on the fact that Emile Hansen, a famous German painter, was forbidden to paint during Nazi rule. The novel analyzes and criticizes the idea of "loyalty to duty" which has long been promoted as "German quality" by traditional narrative techniques, and inspires people to reflect on the civic obligations trampled by the Nazis. This is not only a milestone in the history of contemporary German literature, but also worth thinking about because of its global philosophy.
