The Call of the Bombe Toad
About This Novel
Professor Alexander is a German widower who returns to his hometown of Danzig to visit his relatives. He falls in love with the widowed Polish artist Alexandra and becomes happily married. After their marriage, they established a German-Polish cemetery company to help young people who left home return to their roots. The number of relocations is increasing day by day. Not only the elderly Danzig returned from Germany and entered a nursing home to spend his old age, but the descendants of the "removed" are also flocking here. They built massively on the former German territory, and villas and golf courses sprung up all over the place. Voices such as "Germans are occupying land in colonial ways" were heard in the Polish Parliament. The Alexanders were driving to Naples to escape the stress and heard the sound of bombe toads on the road - which locals believed was a bad omen.
