"The Execution of Justice", tells us that: a respected professor is dead - he was actually shot in a crowded restaurant in Zurich, in front of dozens of witnesses. The killer calmly handed himself over to the police. So why has he now hired a lawyer to clear his name? And why has he chosen the notorious drunken spot to defend himself? As he investigates, Spot finds himself obsessed, deeply entangled in confusing complications until he reaches a fatal conclusion: justice can only be restored by a crime.
This is a captivating noir classic from the master of the black comedy genre. Justice is a dark and vicious satire about the legal system and a disturbing and ambiguous allegory about sin, justice, violence, and morality. It is a journey down a strange and winding path that involves Mr. Spatt with a host of other strange characters, none of whom are concerned with finding the truth, writes Friedrich Durnmatt.
It is a unique piece of literature written with great energy and style. It may not be much fun for everyone. You may not like all the characters and you may not like killing. But anyway, the story will shock you.
The story moves shockingly back and forth in time and is narrated by an unreliable and boring narrator. The author carefully describes absurd events. This is the trick of Doronmat.
