Der deutsche Schriftsteller und 脺bersetzer gilt als einer der bedeutendsten deutschen Autoren der Nachkriegszeit. Er schrieb Gedichte, Kurzgeschichten und Romane, von denen auch einige verfilmt wurden. Dabei setzte er sich kritisch mit der jungen Bundesrepublik auseinander. Zu seinen erfolgreichsten Werken z盲hlen "Billard um halbzehn", "Ansichten eines Clowns" und "Gruppenbild mit Dame". Den Nobelpreis f眉r Literatur bekam Heinrich B枚ll 1972; er war nach 43 Jahren der erste deutsche Schriftsteller, dem diese Auszeichnung zuteil wurde. 1974 erschien sein wohl popul盲rstes Werk, "Die verlorene Ehre der Katharina Blum". Durch sein politisches Engagement wirkte er, gemeinsam mit seinem Freund Lew Kopelew, auf die europ盲ische Literatur der Nachkriegszeit. Dar眉ber hinaus arbeitete B枚ll gemeinsam mit seiner Frau Annemarie als Herausgeber und 脺bersetzer englischsprachiger Werke ins Deutsche...

Heinrich B枚ll became a full-time writer at the age of 30. His first novel, Der Zug war p眉nktlich (The Train Was on Time), was published in 1949. Many other novels, short stories, radio plays, and essay collections followed. In 1972 he received the Nobel Prize for Literature "for his writing which through its combination of a broad perspective on his time and a sensitive skill in characterization has contributed to a renewal of German literature." He was the first German-born author to receive the Nobel Prize since Hermann Hesse in 1946. His work has been translated into more than 30 languages, and he is one of Germany's most widely read authors.

Does "freedom of speech" include the right to exploit individuals and to distort evidence to serve a populist paper's financial profit as well as its wealthy, ultra-conservative, bigoted patrons' agenda?

I first read Katharina Blum's story in school, and my memory of it was vague, concerned mostly with the question whether or not it was understandable that she fell in love with a criminal, helped him escape and then committed a murder after being the victim of atrociously untruthful and sensationalist press coverage in a news outlet quite similar to Daily Mail or Fox News.

Rereading the short novel today, labelled a "pamphlet" by the author himself, I have a different, more nuanced impression. What I conceived as a cold, detached narrative now seems a perfectly valid method to show what an objective report of a string of incidents might look like, - avoiding expletives, sexual voyeurism, random interpretation, misquoting and speculation. It is a direct response, stylistically speaking, to the press coverage that destroyed Katharina's life, just because IT COULD.

It contains an open political message, a warning. Without justifying violence in any way, it highlights the hatred which erupts out of frustration and despair when a person is exposed to public shaming. It shows the danger of corrupt people in powerful positions colluding with newspapers under their control to deliberately plant false information in the public consciousness.

The most powerful scene in the story shows Katharina paralysed by the evil lies about herself in the populist paper she is reading. A kind friend collects several articles in objective, fair newspapers to show her the contrast to the big front pages and photographs that torture her. Katharina shrugs off those truthful articles.

"Doesn't matter what the other papers write, everybody reads this one", she says, displaying the paradox of human nature, claiming to want information while actually asking for voyeuristic entertainment that endangers truth rather than uncovering it.

Katharina Blum's story is almost more relevant today, when objective news outlets are openly threatened by extreme populists in powerful positions around the world, and when unethical, power hungry politicians shout "fake news" whenever a journalist reports evidence that goes against their personal agenda. They act like wolves dressed up as sheep, pointing at the sheepish crowds and yelling "Wolf!" at them, thus deflecting attention from the true predators.

In the end, nobody knows whom to trust, anything is possible, and journalism is discredited and irrevocably damaged. And that in turn puts both democracy and individual human rights in danger.

We need to learn again the difference between journalistic bullying with a biased political agenda and independent reporting of facts.

We need to discover again that the flashiest headlines and most compromising pictures and scandalous details are not the most valid information.

We need to respect the privacy of individuals and separate abuse from reportage.

We need to think about the long term effects of journalism without ethical rules - for its own sake.

When female sexuality is exploited and demonised to cover up assault and abuse of power, individual human lives are destroyed. That is the message of the story, not whether or not Katharina was justified to commit murder. She wasn't. She never thought she was. But she was driven to the point of not caring about that anymore.

Our shared human responsibility is not to deliver a platform for vile defamation, not to encourage bullying and threatening behaviour, and to support press coverage that remains objective, fair, fact-based and truthful - and relevant.

I hope they still read Katharina Blum in schools nowadays.

(Book 338 from 1001 books) - Die Verlorene Ehre der Katharina Blum oder: Wie Gewalt entsteht und Wohin sie F眉hren Kann = The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum, Heinrich B枚ll

The story deals with the sensationalism of tabloid news and the political climate of panic over Red Army Faction terrorism in the 1970's Federal Republic of Germany.

The main character, Katharina Blum, is an innocent housekeeper whose life is ruined by an invasive tabloid reporter and a police investigation when the man with whom she has just fallen in love turns out to be wanted by the police because of a bank robbery.

DEL COME LA VIOLENZA PU脪 SVILUPPARSI E DOVE PU脪 PORTARE

description
Angela Winkler 猫 Katharina Blum nel film del 1975, di Volker Schl枚ndorff e Margarethe von Trotta. Dietro di lei, l鈥檌mmancabile Mario Adorf.

Heinrich B枚ll conosceva personalmente Ulrike Meinhof e scrisse un saggio su di lei; ospit貌 a casa sua Sol啪enicyn subito dopo l鈥檈spulsione dall鈥橴RSS; critic貌 la guerra fredda, la corsa agli armamenti, il modo come la stampa di destra affrontava il terrorismo, e la politica repressiva del governo tedesco.
Tutto questo scaten貌 una campagna di stampa contro di lui, fu tacciato di comunismo (in Germania all鈥檈poca accusa gravissima. Non solo in Germania e non solo all鈥檈poca) e di amicizia coi terroristi.
Sbatti il mostro in prima pagina, si potrebbe dire.

description
L鈥檃ltro protagonista maschile del film, J眉rgen Prochnow, anni prima che il film 鈥淒as Boot鈥� lo facesse sbarcare a Hollywood specializzandosi nel ruolo del cattivo, al punto che in ogni suo film appena entrava in scena si sapeva come sarebbe andata a finire, il ruolo del bad guy era immediatamente chiaro.

Appare evidente che L鈥檕nore perduto di Katharina Blum (dal quale fu tratto un film non all鈥檃ltezza del romanzo, con la regia firmata a quattro mani da Volker Schl枚ndorff e Margarethe von Trotta) 猫 ispirato da questi fatti, 猫 la risposta in letteratura di B枚ll alla stampa di destra (il quotidiano Bild Zeitung del gruppo Springer).
Essendo un grande scrittore, ne 猫 venuto fuori un grande libro: molto lontano dalle opere dei suoi esordi che ho letto di recente, 猫 un racconto lungo, o romanzo breve, graffiante, caustico, divertente per l鈥檌ronia tagliente che B枚ll dispiega largamente.

description
Il titolo originale 猫 鈥淟鈥檕nore perduto di Katharina Blum, in Italia il film usc矛 come 鈥淚l caso Katharina Blum鈥�: evidentemente l鈥檕nore perduto fu considerato un deterrente per gli spettatori.

Un narratore fittizio confronta la versione ufficiale dei fatti, ma manipolata dalla stampa (il 鈥淕iornale鈥�), con i retroscena del caso.
E鈥� una contro cronaca retrospettiva costruita intorno all鈥檌nterrogatorio di Katharina nell鈥檜fficio di polizia.
La responsabilit脿 di chi si serve delle parole come strumento di oppressione, 猫 trasfigurata nelle formule burocratiche degli inquirenti, nei luoghi comuni grossolani e mistificanti di certa stampa, a cui si contrappone l鈥檌persensibilit脿 filologica di Katharina.
La donna risponde con un atto di violenza alla violenza diffamatoria della stampa e delle istituzioni, e dopo aver riscattato il suo onore perduto, si costituisce.
E鈥� un gesto clamoroso, che certo non la far脿 entrare nella storia, ma, ahilei, nella cronaca per pochi brutti giorni, doppiamente vittima.

Lui voleva fare bum-bum, no?, e io ho fatto bum-bum.

Katharina Blum is a genuinely sublime character.
Little pampered by fate, she maintains morally irreproachable behavior by always remaining faithful to her character, regardless of the circumstances.
She had suddenly subjected following the meeting of a man wanted by the police to the dubious precedents of a sensational journalist who translates all the exemplary elements of his life into means of provoking a public's attention and interest, always blas茅 and insatiable. As a result, she loses all interest in the life she led until then and comes, in just a few days, to murder without remorse or conscience.
It has exposed the events in a precise, practical way. However, the tiny points of humor make it possible not to overemphasize the despicable methods employed by the unworthy penpusher.
It was striking to find that the despicable processes shown in the novel are very close to what one can observe in reality. Anyone who has dealt with the news in person knows how the media often presents the truth in its most sensational, far too frequently leaving the essentials entirely in the dark.
When the rules of the perverse game are known, it is up to those who want to get their messages across to be very careful to avoid the slightest false step. On the other hand, when it is a question of a person who asks only to continue his real modest life in anonymity, the dishonor of the phenomenon becomes genuinely striking. We are touching on an essential aspect of any democratic system. It currently functions extremely poorly since it sells itself to sensation, which can overflow nightmarishly, as presented by B枚ll.
He wrote the novel in the 1970s and steadily gained traction. However, the advent of the Internet and social media has made it worse than ever.
May vigilance, critical spirit, and irony always accompany us in these valleys of shadows and cheap deaths!

"Mama I'm in Love with the criminal."
- Britney Spear Katherina Blum


It seems people find a certain kind of enjoyment in seeing each other's lives going to ruins. We love to get hold of dirt on whosoever, we can, maybe it serves as a kind of moral victory for our own boring selves, plus it is a good source of entertainment. And news agencies exploit this tendency by providing us scapegoats. The only time it is a problem for us is when it is our own life being reduced to pieces. Kind of like in Shirley Jackson's The Lottery.

Katherina Blum probably didn't even enjoy this scape-goating by media. She was the most puritan, pious soul you can imagine outside a nun's dress. Until she fell in love with a criminal and go all Bella Swan for him after a single dance. And irresponsible journalism did the rest. I think the dull narrative, the narrator is actually apologetic for the mention of blood, suits the book given that B枚ll is writing against sensationalism.

The day I write this review, coincides with two events: Five years ago, on 3/3/2009 the Historical Archive of the City of Cologne collapsed, two people died and many historical treasures kept in the building are believed to be destroyed forever:



Today is also Rosenmontag, the highlight of the German carnival season and Cologne being one of the carnival hot spots in Germany:



So, why am I telling you this?

First of all, Heinrich B枚ll was born in Cologne and lived there or nearby his whole life. After his death the descendants decided to transfer almost his entire literary remains to the Historical Archive in Cologne, the manuscripts, letters, sources, etc. Most likely all of these are now lost. Whether or not the manuscript of this novel has been destroyed I cannot say. It has been a great loss in any case. Secondly, I don't think Mr. B枚ll cared for the carnival business at all. But the story of the book takes place in a few days just before Rosenmontag. So you could say I read the book at the time the story unfolds, only 40 years later.

The blurb of this book is very accurate and aptly put, so I don't want to add anything here. The prose is detached and there's no real narrator. It reads more like a journal of some kind. It's strange, but interesting strange. Part of it contains some more or less hidden black humor while other parts seem like they have been written in great anger, with a fist in his pocket, so to speak. The relationship between the tabloid press (especially the newspaper called BILD and the Springer publishing firm to which this paper belongs) and the author wasn't a very good one, to put it mildly. After the usual disclaimer about fictitious events and characters we find the following revealing statement:
Should in the description of certain journalistic practices similarities with the practices of the BILD-Zeitung be revealed, these similarities are not intended or accidental, but inevitable.

I don't want to go into more detail here. Suffice to say that Springer refused to publish bestseller lists in his magazines for as long as KATARINA BLUM was on them. Childish behavior? You bet, but in the years that started in 1968 with the APO (extra-parliamentary opposition) and culminated in the so called German Autumn in 1977, the nerves (on both sides) were pretty raw.

So, I guess, this is a rather political book. And it is (or better was back then) largely misunderstood. People actually believed it contains calls for violence. Nothing could be further from the truth, and the subtitle to this book "How violence develops and where can it lead" may give a small hint to this.

Insightful and believable if somewhat confusing look at the media frenzy surrounding a criminal on the run and a young woman who becomes involved with him. It's 1974 and pretty hardworking German Katharina Blum is caught like a rabbit in the headlights when accused of helping wanted criminal Ludwig Gotten evade police capture from a building already under surveillance by law enforcement. Once the tabloids get their dirty little operations going they start an intrusive and nasty smear campaign of hate where she is portrayed by a leading newspaper as a whore, communist and atheist, while a reporter may or may not have been partly responsible for the death of Katherina's mother after trying to get an interview from the hospital she was staying, Katharina though would go on to have the last laugh with chilling results. Heinrich B枚ll writes with icy and unemotional conviction that not wholly makes you feel any sympathy as fact and fiction blur, and the twisting of events can seem deceitful. Using a step by step police interrogation style that both works but also creates a problem as it's not always easy to follow the timelines presented to the reader. Winner of the Nobel Prize in 1972, what B枚ll has done well here also is creating a paranoid and edgy Germany at a time of political unrest and terrorism that takes any investigation as a wider spectrum of trouble.

If I said magnificent, or fantastic, that might be a bit much, if I described it as just about right, that could sound too grudging and mean spirited.

Die verlorene Ehre der Katharina Blum ider: Wie Gewalt entstehen und wohin sie fuehren kann is a very short book dating back to 1976 when I was far too young to have read I for myself. Despite its age and particular historical (and cultural) setting, it is a contemporary story, Andy Warhol said In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes, a little bit before B枚ll wrote this story, which deals with the nature of that fame and its consequences, in that sense it is rather like , except not half a million pages long and an epic journey through 1980s New York. Instead this book is funny, well not exactly funny, I laughed while reading some that was not at all funny.

This little book tells the story of why Katharina Blum, a young woman, working as a cleaning lady and occasional bar maid, came to murder a journalist and turn herself into the police .

It reminded me of a story - I think about Benjamin Franklin, who although himself as a printer was a big fan of the freedom to print what ever you like, advised in the case of other people freely publishing lies, slander or rubbish about you, to have a big stick handy to beat said purveyors of such untruths. There's a pessimism in that, an acknowledgement that in Blum's terms once your honour is lost, it is not going to be regained, not even in the event of a very small apology printed at the bottom of page 33 of the same newspaper scrutinised by a team of lawyers with far more care than the original dishonouring article(s) was (were) written. But revenge in the form of physical violence might offer some relief.

One can see the attraction of this, in the story there are a couple of examples of statements or quotations, judiciously edited by journalists to say the exact opposite of what the speaker intended, all the better einfachen Menschen Artikulationshilfe zu geben (p.92). The freedom of the press then denies freedom of expression and opinion of everyone who is not the press. Here demonstrated by the creation of waves of rage and hostility towards Blum and her employers.

Obviously this is a fictional story, but now and again one can come across similar non-fiction stories of people who get their 15 minutes of fame, and whose lives get chewed over and spat out as a result.

Nobel Prize for Literature 1972
English:

B枚ll wrote this in 1974 because he was furious at the infamous German yellow press paper "Bild"; in 2021, the editor-in-chief of said publication is under fire because of a scandalous compliance investigation against him, feat., you know, sexual misconduct, abuse of power etc. pp. *sigh* *facepalm* Well, back in 1974 when "Katharina Blum" was published, B枚ll was upset because parts of the yellow press, namely "Bild", (wrongfully!) suggested that he was a sympathizer of the Red Army Fraction, a domestic terror organization - so this slim volume is his pamphlet against the role of the yellow press in sensationalizing terror and ruining people's lives in order to push papers.

The book tells the story of the title-giving Katharina, a 27-year-old woman who meets a man named Ludwig at a carnival and spends the night with him - as it turns out, Ludwig is suspected to be a terrorist who has robbed a bank and committed a murder. Katharina is deemed to have helped him flee during that faithful night, she is arrested and becomes the center of a vicious media campaign perpetrated by the "Zeitung" (a.k.a. "Bild") that depicts her as a criminal slut.

A hit song by "Die 脛rzte" states that "Bild" consists of "fear, hate, tits and the weather forecast", and yes, this is played on the radio in Germany, even on public radio, so we can assume that the way "Bild" works is by now common knowledge. Also, I think that nowadays, people are more aware of the strategies depicted by B枚ll, especially people under 40 who are more media savvy. The didactical impetus of the author does not help the text either, it's a little Brecht-like in its annoyingness. But still, it's a fact that "Bild" sells like sliced bread and harms people - not too long ago, the ex-girlfriend of famous soccer player J茅r么me Boateng killed herself after a vicious campaign led by "Bild" (it's still unclear in how far the paper was responsible for that suicide).

So relevant topic, certainly even more so in the 70's, but is that great literature? Meeehhh.

This is an astonishing little novella. The most striking contrast to the Flanagan which treats the same subject of a woman exposed to the savagery of the media after it turns out that the man she spent the night with is a wanted criminal, is the tone. Flanagan wrote a competent thriller, but B枚ll uses the reports of the state prosecution, the police and Katharina's defence lawyers to create a dry, meticulous, straight narrative of the events of four days. But despite this sober intent, there are many ironic little asides, comments both on this undertaking of transcribing events into printed words, which is what is actually being exposed as fraudulant and highly questionable when undertaken by the print media, and on the events and people involved themselves. Katharina herself is also a remarkable creation: she is loyal and truthful and virtuous, and the act of murder seems to liberate her. She looks forward to living a life much closer in essence to that of her lover, now that both are in prison. She looks forward to their coming out of prison, also roughly at the same time, when they will both still be young enough to start over. The person who seems to be destroyed by events is the lawyer who was Katharina's employer and who also undertook her defence. The newspaper that is pilloried here still distorts and misconstrues and misrepresents. I wonder if the readership is a little less guileless now?

Time: A couple of weeks in February in 1974

Place: Cologne, West Germany

Characters: for a tiny book I counted 24 characters with names 鈥� that鈥檚 like a lot, don鈥檛 you think? Probably about 15 have speaking roles so it鈥檚 probably a good idea to keep a handy list so you can immediately check who Moeding or Schonner or Brettloh or Straubleder is. Of course if you have a great memory for German names you鈥檒l be fine.

Subject: the deliberate destruction of ordinary people鈥檚 lives by the rancid loathsome shameless degenerate tabloid press, which is still with us to this day.

Method : an official report into the murder of Werner Totges, reporter, by Katherina Blum, 27 year old caterer, housekeeper and occasional waitress.

Mood : ironical, playful, a little smirky if we鈥檙e honest

Religion : these people are a little too busy for God right now. This is a crisis!

Situation: there鈥檚 no doubt she shot that disgusting reporter guy, that鈥檚 not a spoiler, but untangling the skein of events that led to the fatal discharge is the thing we are engaged upon. But what was Ludwig Gotten doing at Katherine鈥檚 flat? Didn鈥檛 she know he was on the run from the cops? That was why the press started in on her.

Language : Because this is all straight-facedly pretend-officialese, we have sentences like There is always the possibility that certain relatively clear pointers toward a relationship between various events and actions will be misinterpreted or lost as mere hints.

Rating : Three stars

Cultural impact : Immediately made into a movie. In the book the outlaw Ludwig Gotten is an army deserter and thief. In the movie he becomes a terrorist on the run which makes sense as the Baader Meinhof Gang were in full flow at the time. I think Heinrich Boll should have thought of that angle himself, it makes the tabloid frenzy about his character more understandable.

Apology to German speakers: there are an awful lot of umlauts missing from this review.

#JulhoNobel

N茫o tivesse eu a coragem de uma lagartixa e creio que seria levada a fazer exactamente o mesmo que a Katharina Blum no final deste livro, depois de ver o seu nome enlameado e a sua vida exposta de forma insultuosa num pasquim, por um jornalista sem escr煤pulos, tudo em nome de uma parangona chamativa.

Confrontara Frau Blum [m茫e de Katharina] com os factos, mas n茫o tinha a certeza de que ela tivesse percebido tudo, porque, aparentemente, o nome G枚tten, nada lhe dizia. Frau Blum dissera: 鈥淧orque 茅 que havia de acabar desta manheira? Porque 茅 que isto havia de acontecer?鈥� Destas palavras o 鈥淶eitung鈥� fizera as seguintes declara莽玫es: 鈥淚sto tinha de acontecer. Tinha de acabar assim鈥�. T枚tges explicara esta altera莽茫o das palavras de Frau Blum dizendo que, como rep贸rter, estava habituado a 鈥渁judar as pessoas simples a exprimirem-se com mais clareza.鈥�

O pr贸prio estilo de Heinrich B枚ll nesta obra tende para o jornal铆stico, assemelhando-se a uma reportagem que relata o interrogat贸rio, as manobras da Pol铆cia, os movimentos da visada e das pessoas do seu c铆rculo mais chegado e indaga as suas motiva莽玫es. 脡 esta estrutura invulgar o ponto forte de 鈥淎 Honra Perdida de Katharina Blum鈥�, mas por outro lado, 茅 ela que me faz ocupar um lugar de espectadora 脿 dist芒ncia, que 茅 acentuado pela escrita factual e desapaixonada. Sinto-me indignada por Katharina por ser denegrida como cidad茫 e como mulher, mas como pessoa n茫o me tocou.
At茅 se envolver com Ludwig G枚tten, um homem procurado pela Pol铆cia, Katharina n茫o passa de uma cidad茫 comum, respeitada por todos por ser uma trabalhadora s茅ria, eficiente e organizada. Assim que cai nas garras do sensacionalista 鈥淶eitung鈥�, tudo no seu passado 茅 desenterrado e alvo de suspeita (a m茫e alco贸lica, o pai com fama de comunista, o div贸rcio), e os seus actos no presente come莽am a ser deturpados para se atingir um verdadeiro assassinato de car谩cter e a sua dignidade como mulher ser posta em causa.

Foi s贸 nessa altura que Katharina tirou da bolsa os dois n煤meros do 鈥淶eitung鈥� e perguntou se o Estado 鈥� foi assim que ela disse 鈥� n茫o poderia fazer alguma coisa para a proteger contra esta imundice e recuperar a sua honra perdida. Ela sabia perfeitamente que o interrogat贸rio se justificava, embora n茫o entendesse muito bem a necessidade de 鈥渋rem at茅 aos 煤ltimos pormenores da sua vida鈥�, mas o que ela n茫o podia compreender era como certos pormenores do interrogat贸rio 鈥� como, por exemplo, a quest茫o das visitas do cavalheiro 鈥� poderem ter chegado ao conhecimento do 鈥淶eitung鈥�, para al茅m de todas aquelas afirma莽玫es falsas e fraudulentas.

_The Lost honor of Katharina Blum_

The lost honor of Katharina Blum is a great book. Heinrich B枚ll did something absolutely brilliant with it. He was absolutely brilliant with his sarcasm and his bravery and he was in full control of this from beggining to end. He gave me this feeling, that he knew what he was doing, he knew what he wanted to state with his book and he executed it perfectly. I think of him as a highly intelligent human being, i loved how smartly and smoothly he interrupted the flow of the writing but it never felt doing so. The writing was amazing, truly raw and honest and ocassionally funny but still discreet and elegant. There is also a movie, i am going to watch it for sure. 5/5 <3

Un pamphlet (cos矛 lo ha definito il suo autore), scritto da uno dei fuoriclasse della parola. Basterebbe, per testimoniarlo, il ritratto di quel personaggio, splendido nella sua ambigua, complessa, respingente e indifendibile innocenza, di Katharina Blum.
I difetti di questo romanzo (lo stile secco/freddo ed un certo tono a met脿 strada tra il verbale redatto da un burocrate e lo sfogo controllato di un osservatore indignato e coinvolto) sono, insieme con una sofisticata freschezza espressiva, anche i suoi pregi maggiori.
Perch茅 non c鈥檈ra forse modo pi霉 efficace per portare piano, piano e con il giusto attrito il lettore dentro l鈥檈mozione con cui lo si voleva far reagire davanti alla macchina mediatica del fango. E davanti agli effetti, che come una inarrestabile reazione a catena, produce in chi ne 猫 vittima, direttamente o indirettamente. Soprattutto, voleva far reagire il lettore davanti ad un modo di fare informazione e di fare il mestiere del giornalista.
Ed 猫 particolarmente interessante ri/leggerlo nell鈥檈poca del giornalismo diffuso e dei social.

The voice of this novel was something new to me: it is written in the form of a report, apparently reserved and unbiased, which presents the slow but effective process of Katharina Blum's public humiliation by police and press.

It all begins with a murder (I'm not sure this may be considered a spoiler, because it comes in the first pages of the novel):
On Sunday evening at almost the same hour (to be precise, at about 7:04 P.M.) she rings the front door bell at the home of Walter Moeding, Crime Commissioner, who is at that moment engaged, for professional rather than private reasons, in disguising himself as a sheikh, and she declares to the startled Moeding that at about 12:15 noon that day she shot and killed Werner T枚tges, reporter, in her apartment, and would the Commissioner kindly give instructions for her front door to be broken down and the reporter to be "removed"; for her part, she has spent the hours between 12:15 noon and 7:00 P.M. roaming around town in search of a remorse that she has failed to find.


It is an excerpt that speaks for the whole narration: its writer sticks to the facts, using a detached, informative tone, but underneath the dry language there is a lot of humor, the opinions are stated between the lines and the reader is left to his/her own devices to issue a conclusion.

Katharina, an intelligent and hard-working girl who comes from a disjointed family, is brought in the spotlight after her brief association with a man considered a bank robber. In the course of four days, her meticulously rebuilt life is shattered to pieces by police interrogations and defamatory articles in The News. With police, every detail of her life must be accounted for, petty secrets are brought up to light, her intimacy and honor are trampled.

The press makes everything appear in a different light, distorts the statements and facts, issues far-fetched suppositions, with no concern for the individual whose life they are destroying. Not only Katharina, but also those who stand by her are subjected to vilification in the newspaper. The reporters are not the solely responsible for this - there are also the influential people who stand in the shadow, deciding who must be protected and who must be thrown to the wolves.

There is no end to this kind of story, though. One isolated act of justice, condemned by law as is it, won't change a thing - press resembles the mythological Hydra: for each head cut off it grows two more, just as poisonous and deadly. The freedom of the press is a two sided blade.

Irresponsible journalism turns a maid into a murderer. Shock! Horror! It would have been much better written by a 'source' from the National Enquirer. As it is Heinrich Boll is too dry and literary and all the shock and horror is sucked out of it leaving just a competently-written, slightly disturbing story.

My first book by the 1972 Nobel Prize for Literature, Heinrich Boll (1917-1985). I am extremely impressed.

This tells the story of a 22-y/o household help and a divorcee, Katharina Blum who at the start of the 4-day Carnival asks her employer for a leave. On the first day, she goes to her friend's party and there meets a mysterious man Ludwig Gotten and falls in love with him. They spend a night in Katharina's apartment and early in the morning Ludwig leaves. Later in the morning, police authorities arrest Katharina allegedly for conniving with a bank robber. The leading newspaper picks up the story and what follows is a media circus. Then towards the end are the two twists: the real identity of Ludwig and what Katharina does to the invasive reporter, Warner Totges who has caused the death of her mother.

This strongly illustrates the negative effects of sensationalizing news especially when it is bordering to being untrue. The book's fictional paper, The News or Die Zeitung does it so badly. For example, when Katharina's mother, Mrs. Blum was interviewed by Totges regarding her daughter Katharina, full of sadness, Mrs. Blum lamented" "Why did it have to end like this, why did it have to come to this?" Totges translated this in the paper: It was bound to come to this, it was bound to come to end like this." Totges accounted for the slight change in Mrs. Blum's statement by saying that as a reporter he was used to "helping simple people to express themselves more clearly."

My goodness. We know what happened to Sgt. Rolando Mendoza during the hijacking that happened last year in Luneta. The media played a big role in the outcome of that sad event.

The book is thin. The writing is plain but Boll knows how to make the story suspenseful thereby making his readers continuously leafing through the pages. He is not too much on describing his settings (something that I enjoy) and tends to concentrate on the events and the people whose lives are interwoven by a particular event. He does not propose a solution to issues. Rather, he presents the facts and let his readers seek for the solution.

The narration is also first person plural (similar to Jeffrey Eugenides' The Virgin Suicides making the readers fell the sad situation that Katharina Blum is experiencing. Making the readers feel like reading just newspaper events that happen on our daily lives. Making us the readers like participants in the novel. Very clever. I thought that Eugenides originated this idea. Now I know better.

I have to read more Boll books.
