La casa dei Krull è al margine estremo del paese, e loro stessi ne vengono tenuti ai margini. Benché naturalizzati, restano gli stranieri, i diversi. E quando davanti all'emporio viene ripescato il cadavere di una ragazza violentata e uccisa, i sospetti cadono fatalmente su di loro. In un magistrale crescendo di tensione, e con un singolare rovesciamento, vediamo montare l'ostilità della popolazione francese verso la famiglia tedesca, e l'avversione per una minoranza, che rappresenta un perfetto capro espiatorio, degenerare progressivamente in odio e violenza.

L’omicidio di Emile Boulay, detto il Bottegaio, sembra da subito anomalo al commissario Maigret. Innanzi tutto perché il cadavere è stato tenuto nascosto per più di quarantott'ore prima di venir abbandonato su un marciapiede. E poi perché Emile è stato strangolato e in genere negli ambienti della malavita si usa la pistola, o al massimo il coltello. Lo stesso Boulay, del resto, era un personaggio anomalo: chi poteva avere interesse a farlo fuori?

Die Neunziger als Schlüsseljahrzehnt unserer Gegenwart und Zukunft. In den neunziger Jahren wurde die Welt geschaffen, in der wir immer noch leben - und die gerade krachend kollabiert. Dagegen setzt dieses Buch kämpferischen Optimismus. Ziel ist es, die Geschichte dieser Dekade zu nutzen, nicht zur Abrechnung, sondern zur Aufklärung. Denn darum geht es: Wir müssen wieder trainieren, in Alternativen zu denken. Wir müssen die Möglichkeiten erkennen, die in jedem Krisenmoment vorhanden sind. Wir müssen wieder an unsere Handlungsfähigkeit glauben, als Einzelne, in der Gemeinschaft, als Demokratie.

"Der Mensch ist das einzige Geschöpf, das konsumiert, ohne zu produzieren. Er gibt keine Milch, er legt keine Eier, er ist zu schwach, um den Pflug zu ziehen, er kann nicht schnell genug rennen, um Kaninchen zu fangen. Dennoch ist er Herr über alle Tiere. Er lässt sie für sich arbeiten, gibt ihnen das Nötigste zurück, damit sie nicht verhungern, und den ganzen Rest behält er für sich. Unsere Arbeit beackert den Boden, unser Mist düngt ihn, und doch gibt es keinen von uns, der mehr als seine nackte Haut besitzt.

It is commonly said within the corridors of Human Resources that the problem of unemployment in our society today is not so much of the unavailability of jobs but the unavailability of employable and progressively productive minds needed to fit into the few available jobs.
