About This Novel
"The Lighthouse" is Siegfried Lenz's most popular novella. It tells the story of the heroic struggle between the crew of a lighthouse and a group of fugitives who robbed the ship. The plot of the novel is full of twists and turns, and at the same time it is profound in meaning and rich in philosophy. Although it looks like a thriller on the surface, it is actually a realistic work that reflects the social status of Germany and even Europe in the 1950s. The author uses this story to express his point of view: Europe after the war is not peaceful, and kind people must remain highly vigilant against those who disrupt social order. This book also contains three short stories: "Lehman's Narration", "Serbian Girl" and "An Emergency Method of Self-Defense".
