Friedrich Dürrenmatt - The Judge and his Hangman

 



Friedrich Dürrenmatt was swiss novelist famous for his plays and numerous novels. He also wrote some kind of crime novels in which he showed how detective novels are not very realistic in depicting and solving crimes. Although very well written, by the end it reaches into surreal nonsense. There is good adaptation of his other novel directed by Sean Penn.
