Christoph Hein, born in Lower Silesia, is one of the most prominent writers in the literature of the German Democratic Republic. In the 1980s as an author Hein became one of the most outspoken critics in his country, taking active part in the political activities of the GDR. Hein’s prose is based mainly on the history of the GDR, on facism and the post-war period. In 1985 his first novel titled Horn’s Death was published. Narrated by the characters, the story is woven around Horn’s suicidal death in 1957. In his novel Hein strived to reflect the problems of one’s alienation and humiliation as well as the image of the GDR regime and the nazi time. It was for the reasons of alienation and political persecution that Hein chose to commit suicide.
