People connected to Heinrich Böll
A German writer who turned the rubble and moral wreckage of post-war Germany into prose sharp enough to win him the Nobel Prize in 1972.
Heinrich Theodor Böll was born on 21 December 1917 and became one of Germany's foremost writers in the decades after World War II. His work captured the landscape of a country rebuilding itself, earning him the Georg Büchner Prize in 1967. Five years later, in 1972, he received the Nobel Prize for Literature. He died on 16 July 1985.
