Books by Wilfried van der Will

This book comprises studies of six leading West German novelists, Gerd Gaiser, Wolfgang Koeppen, Heinrich Boll, Gunter Grass, Martin Walser and Uwe Johnson.

The Federal Republic of Germany has long been held up as a 'model society' on account of its economic and social policy achievements. In this, the first comprehensive study of the subject in English, the authors trace the rich history of political protest in West Germany and examine the political role of critical intellectuals.
