A young child has been found brutally murdered. A mother's world has been shattered forever. And a detective has made a pledge to find the killer. Now, one man's crime is about to become another man's obsession. But the detective is a man of his word. No one can stop him. And no one can save him.
A new translation of Prometheus bound with extant fragments of the lost Prometheus plays.
Als Achtjähriger kam Joel Agee im Herbst 1948 mit seiner Mutter, seinem Stiefvater und deren gemeinsamem Sohn nach Ostberlin. Was man von Joel verlangt, nämlich ein guter Kommunist zu werden, genau das will er nicht. Vor dem Kasernenhoftor der Schule und der FDJ flieht der Einzelgänger zu seinen Büchern und Träumereien. Meisterhaft beschwört Joel Agee die Atmosphäre jener Jahre herauf, wenn er von der Jugend eines Amerikaners in Ostdeutschland erzählt.
