The combinatiion of the Federal Republic and the GDR.,
By
This review is from: Two States - One Nation? (Paperback)
In 1990, when the Federal Republic was going about taking over the GDR, Grass voiced his concerns over the reunification of Germany. Grass was opposed due to the two World Wars that Germany started. His suggestion was that confederation with the German states was better for Europe than the reunification. German reunification posed risks to the European continent that could not be chanced again in this lifetime. Of course, Germany reunited and there has been no risk so far.
Grass also exposes the reader to other interesting thoughts about Germany. He talks about the old boundaries given up, the concentration camps and how they affected the artists of post war Germany, and the wall. Grass is a writer and artist from Danzig, the old free city of the Baltic coast. He dwells on some interesting topics. This is an OK read. The writer is a left of center artist who has some interesting and provacitive ideas. |
