English Translation

34 v From a review of the book "Ragnarök" in the Volkische Beobachter 1928 "The author apparently neglected the individual embodiment of his folds with intent to distinguish the races from each other all the more. His language is trained at the Prosaedda, simple and massive. Deep mysticism is combined with sharp realism, which renounces idealization of one's own race. This creates a work that is as strange as it is attractive, which does not miss the dramatic moments. Highlights of the novel are the portrayal of a struggle between man and bear and the great Thing, not to mention the monumental finale of the narrative. - The book in its shocking seriousness and with its inner purity, refined by heroism spirit, is not only an enriching reading for adults, but above all it should also be given to the growing youth."
