«El honor perdido de Katharina Blum» is the novel by Heinrich Böll published in 1995 by FisicalBook in paperback, with 176 pages, in Spanish.
Domestic worker Katharina Blum spends a night with Ludwig Götten, a deserter and alleged terrorist. That night makes her a suspect: the police investigation and the sensationalist press ruin her reputation and her life.
