Title: Horseman pass by
Review: Bonhoeffer, it has to be said, was a man locked up in a prison. He may have been a visionary, a great leader, but he ended up in prison and had to cope with that. There is a drabness to his writing. It doesn't quite lift you up. It doesn't quite inspire you. Of course, it was his own choice. He didn't have to wage war with the Nazis. He didn't have to come back from America and put his head in the lion's mouth. He went back knowing what was in store for him. It's questionable whether he achieved anything after that. Posthumously? Possibly. But his writings from prison? There are better things out there unless you're a scholar or something like that.
