Gerhard Henschel's 'Harry Piel sits at the Nile' is a German writer who exposes all the dark secrets and transgressions that are inherent in our society. The author, who appears to be taken by many of the obscene, hateful insults used on television, shows his frustration with the way violence and the ill treatment of human dignity so easily becomes commonplace. He exposes various cases of harrassment and misconduct, which have been disregarded by society in the name of popular jokes. As an author who has a clear picture of where justice should come into play, Henschel emphasizes that no one is above scrutiny. Through his book readers can learn about the misery and the depraved situations prevalent in Germany at a time when violence is getting commonplace and when human rights are infringed on daily basis.
