Die Lokomotive und der Prellbock
Hermann Harry Schmitz called this wonderfully crazy story a fable without morals, which surprisingly tells a lot about the relationship between children and adults as well
as the setting and recognition of limits. First published in 1908, the grotesque is now – reinterpreted – an unusual children's book.
The book is part of »Die Schönsten Bücher 2019« by Stiftung Buchkunst.
