AUTHOR
SUMMARY
In 1981, Heinrich Boll returned to the streets of his childhood in this remarkable collection of nonfiction. This volume captures the musings of a mature Boll as he looks back with fondness and with anger on his formative years: as a student who avoided school but lived for his education on the street; and as a young man forced to grapple with the moral horror that was Hitler. What's to Become of the Boy - superbly translated by Leila Vennewitz - provides uncommon insight into Boll's maturation as an author and as a man.Böll, Heinrich is the author of 'What's to Become of the Boy?: Or, Something to Do with Books' with ISBN 9780394530161 and ISBN 0394530160.
