Summary:
"In '
Abschied
von
den
Kriegsteilnehmern
' erzählt Hanns-Josef Ortheil
von
der Flucht eines jungen Mannes nach Amerika, wo er
den
Bildern
von
Krieg und Nachkrieg entkommen will, die ihn seit dem Tod seines Vaters obsessiv verfolgen. Zum Mississippi, nach New Orleans und in die Karibik führt diese immer manischer werdende und Schrecken auslösende Flucht, bis der Sohn wieder
den
Weg nach Europa findet, wo mit der Öffnung des Eisernen Vorhangs im Jahr 1989 gerade die 'Vater-Epoche' zu Ende geht. '
Abschied
von
den
Kriegsteilnehmern
' ist eine große Elegie auf die deutsche Nachkriegszeit."--German
" In 'Farewell to the War Participants' Hanns-Josef Ortheil tells of the flight of a young man to America, where he wants to escape the images of war and postwar, which obsessively pursue him since the death of his father. To the Mississippi, to New Orleans and the Caribbean leads this always manicizing and frightening escape, until the son finds his way back to Europe, where with the opening of the Iron Curtain in 1989 just the 'father era' comes to an end , 'Farewell to the War Participants' is a great elegy to the
German
post-war period: A novel about fathers and sons, about pictures and role models."--Google translate from the
