  • Introduction: Barbara Wurm

As Alexander is celebrating his 50th birthday on a secluded island, news of an impending nuclear strike breaks. Panic spreads but not in him – he retreats even more and prays to God. He vows to renounce all worldly things, to fall silent and turn away from his son if God prevents the catastrophe. A philosophical and religious legacy on the end of time. (bw)
