A rich politician enters a restaurant, shakes hands with a professor very kindly, takes out a gun and shoots the professor dead in front of all the people. This politician calls the first-person narrator, a young lawyer, to examine his case with the assumption, that the murderer was someone else. It is no secret that the politician gets his freedom back, what the lawyer never wanted. . That's the start of "The Execution of Justice" from Friedrich Dürrenmatt. The young lawyer realizes too late, in which trap the judiciary throws him, because he mistakes it with justness. It’s a big play about who utilises who, who controls who for his own well. What is justness? All that in so many layers and truly intelligent, landing in the question about the big picture. . My mind won’t forget the picture when a dentist's dentures fall on the ground in a restaurant and the people around him got tears of laughter. The dentist crawling on all fours, searching his dentures and everyone kicking these further through the room. That’s this grotesque Dürrenmatt I love so much. A titillative and honest feeling comes over me. So threatening, dark and big images. And so are the characters, like the boozy, resigned lawyer in the red-light milieu, or the filthy rich, growth-restricted, lonely lady, described as „creature“ that gets carried around on arms. D, still my hero in literature. . #dürrenmatt #friedrichdürrenmatt #justiz #justice #justness #judiciary #literature #bookstagram #instabook #bookstagrammer #igreads #guyswhoread #gayswhoread #instagood #beautiful #photooftheday #visualsoflife #literatur #gerechtigkeit #diogenesverlag #leseempfehlung #литература #дюрренматт #правосудие #роман #букстаграм #книги #швейцарии https://www.instagram.com/p/BxaVLFmhMEl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8yesy72svchz
