i'm watching an arte doku about life in today's russia and every time i see the host of the show and her friends i can't avoid thinking of this song i have heard for the first time some 30 years ago. it's about the fate of german emigrants during nazi time. in particular a poem by an austrian author who in the end died all alone in britain. some of his poems have been made into songs by a german folk group called zupfgeigenhansel in the 80s ...
