NAMES AND FACES / BY SAM HEILNER

Author: by Sam Heilner
Date: Monday, August 9, 1982
Page: ?????
Section: RUN OF PAPER

A novel by Nobel Prize-winning author Heinrich Boll will be published 34 years after an unwitting publishing house turned it down, the magazine Der Spiegel said yesterday. Boll, 64, won fame in West Germany in the early 1950s with his novels about the effects of Nazism on Germans and their speedy efforts at reconstructing their society. Now, Boll will publish an early work in the same vein called "Das Vermaechtnis" ("The Legacy"). Boll wrote the novel in 1948, but it was rejected. The manuscript first traveled with Boll's papers to Boston University in 1969. In 1979, when Boll decided to loan his archives permanently to the Cologne library, the unheralded manuscript was returned to West Germany.
