«Das Messingherz. Oder Die kurzen Beine der Wahrheit.» is the satirical novel by Herbert Rosendorfer, published by Dtv in paperback (580 pages, in German).
A couple finds a brass heart at the end of a path and, from that discovery, the narrative moves between a love story and a twisted satire of German bureaucracy: a critical and malicious portrait of the Bundesnachrichtendienst, the federal intelligence service.
The work originally appeared in 1979; this Dtv edition is from 2001.
For readers of German fiction and those interested in political and institutional satires.
Herbert Rosendorfer was a German jurist, writer, historian, and composer.
