German satirist, poet and novelist, whose military experiences made him pacifist after World War I and opponent of totalitarian systems. Kästner is best known for his juvenile novels, but they were not popular among Nazis - his famous EMIL UND DIE DETEKTIVE (1929) did not first get publishing permit. Kästner's children's books reflected his social optimism based on his belief in the renewing power of the each new generation of youth. Taken from kirjasto
