The father of a murderer was in real life the father of the german nationalsocialist politician Heinrich Himmler, one of Hitler's nearest compains. Himmler educated greece at a humanistic school in munich, but he was not human at all. Andersch had to leave school after a very bad verbal test - as well as his brother, who should finish school soon. This little book shows the character of one of the most important leaders in Nazi-Deutschland, and Anderschs finishes the story with a question: "Does humanism protects against nothing?"
