Less than a hundred pages in a font so large that I was beginning to have bought the large print. A novel that is not worth publishing list, as amendment to go through it, may in fact It is a long short story.
That's all I have to Atiq Rahimi's Earth and Ashes stay.

A grandfather wants his grandson to visit his son, who works away from home the village in a mine. So far, so harmless. The reason for the visit of his grandfather, the destruction of the village is by a bomb attack. Grandfather and grandson are among the few survivors, the grandson is deaf since then.

How does one live with such experiences? How do you bring such news? The narrator uses the rare Du-form, says fortwährned to the grandfather, whose thoughts and talks his grief, can be overwhelming nature, his fear of meeting with the son are portrayed as very direct. heart.

the end, the story then takes an unexpected turn for me, to me the difference my values, which makes clear his grandfather's. More clearly than I understand the values of his grandfather, even respect, but still reject.
