This booklet is grown from careless, partly lost notes that had been sent to relatives and classmates
several years ago.
It dates back to an era before the flood, pandemic, and war struck worse.
Retired because of my poor eyesight, my interest in literature had awakened, and the exchange seemed worthwhile once more.
Thus this little booklet has still been gathered.
This English translation has been corrected and slightly extended.
The older German version is available as an audiobook and some music.
