Title : The Two Sacraments - Heinrich Böll - book

Summary :

"You know I'm an architect and that I should have built houses, but I never built any, I only blew them up." On the orders of a mad German army general, Robert Fähmel destroyed the splendid St. Anthony's Abbey during the Second World War. It was his own father, the old Fähmel, who had built it. Now Joseph, the son, is planning to rebuild it... Could it be to ward off the fate that has weighed on this German family of architects for three generations? Beneath the exterior of a vast family saga, a tale of ruins and successive constructions, one of Heinrich Böll's richest works tells us fifty years of German history.

Heinrich Böll (1917-1985) grew up in a Catholic family that instilled in him a hatred of Nazism. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1972, he is one of the greatest German authors of the 20th century. His books Children of the Dead , Group portrait with lady , Lost Honor by Katharina Blum are available in Points.
