Abstract

The Lovers of Gain
Boyle, Kay | June 24, 1950 issue

The days in Germany were like the days in no other country, there to be breathed into being as one might breathe into the lips and nostrils of the dead. The hours of them seemed suspended, perhaps brought to a halt by the monumental rubble, but halted so long ago that it could no longer be recalled in what month, or year, or even in what lifetime, their sequence had reached this pause. Perhaps the meaning of night and day, of summer and winter, of peace and war, had been lost to this country in the instant when hope of German victory died.
