First Line
Ten minutes to midnight: a pious Friday evening in May and a fine river mist lying in the market square. Bonn was a Balkan city, stained and secret, drawn over with tramwire. Bonn was a dark house were someone had died, a house draped in Catholic black and guarded by ;policemen. Their leather coats glistened in the lamplight, the black flags hung over them like birds. Now a car, now a pedestrian hurried past, and the silence followed like a wake. A tram sounded, but far away. In the grocer's shop, from a pyramid of tins, the handwritten notice advertised the emergency: LAY IN YOUR STORE NOW! Among the crumbs, marzipan pigs like hairless mice proclaimed the forgotten Saint's Day.
