Peace to the collectors

Magazines The NZZ's monthly supplement, NZZ Folio, is not only read but also collected by many, a fact that Ruf Lanz has been dramatizing for some time with a campaign in which world literature has to thin out on the bookshelf so that there is room for the collected folios. Five new subjects have now been presented. Ruf Lanz quickly turned Kafka's "The Trial" into "The Short Trial", and "Max and Moritz" became "Max". The new title for Tolstoy's tome "War and Peace" should go straight into current world history, as it has been hopefully shortened to "Peace".
