Der Fall Collini by Ferdinand von Schirach

globalvillager's review against another edition

2.0

I thought I was reading a thriller. But it was not. Then when I finally thought it would start it was over. International bestseller? Not for me.

juliareadsbooks's review against another edition

4.0

Das war mein erstes Buch von Ferdinand von Schirach, wollte aber „Der Fall Collini“ schon lange lesen weil mich der Trailer zu dem Film so angesprochen hat. Ich wusste nicht ganz genau was ich zu erwarten hatte, wurde aber nicht enttäuscht. Der Roman lässt sich wundervoll lesen, die Sprache ist klar und unterbricht den Lesefluss nicht. Die Erzählung ist aber spannend geschrieben und man möchte bis zum Ende wissen, wie es ausgeht.

Ich denke, die Auseinandersetzung der Deutschen mit ihrer Vergangenheit ist etwas, was noch immer nicht abgeschlossen ist. Der Roman zeigt gut wie nach dem Ende des Dritten Reiches viele Nazis darum herumkam für ihre furchtbaren Taten geradezustehen, wie viel bis heute unter den Tisch gekehrt wird. Das ist ein sehr wichtiges Thema das nicht in Vergessenheit geraten darf.
