Der Fall Roman
by Albert Camus
Wenn die Zuhälter und Diebe immer und überall verurteilt würden, hielten sich ja alle rechtschaffenen Leute ständig für unschuldig! Und meiner Meinung nach muss gerade das verhindert werden. In einer atemberaubenden Beichte bekennt ein im Amsterdamer Hafenviertel untergetauchter Staranwalt Selbstgefälligkeit und Opportunismus als Triebfedern seines einstigen Rechtsbewusstseins. Für diesen Roman erhielt Albert Camus den Nobelpreis.
