Fiction
Der Totengräber im Buchsbaum / The Gravedigger in the Boxwood Tree
by August Schmölzer
Description
The story of a liberation
Everyone of us happens to be, deliberately or not, witness of occurences that he/she disapproves, whithout taking action against it, because they lack the strenght and courage. Later, maybe - the consciousness is raising reproaches, sometimes until the brink of despair. That is what happens to Josef. He is coming back from the town by the see, where his youth and the war had led him, to the mountain town of his childhood. But a look in the eyes of Michael, a young boy who has been shot in front of him, outlasts. Through the continuing dialogues between Josef and Michael, the story of Josef’s life takes shape while he is brooding over expectations, departures, retreats and a new beginning … and it finds, eventually, its fulfillment and happiness when Josef opens his heart to Ragusa, his old flame.
