I liked this, probably because it describes in a very beautiful, critical
and literary manner what I coined some twenty years ago:
"Czernowitz war eine Stadt in der man sich in fuenf Sprachen missverstand".
This was not accepted by most of our friends, and of course, is only half
true.
But so is its original counter affirmation that tends to idealize those
times.
Hainz's main point though is to see the good that comes out of the bad. A
Hegelian view that should never die.
