Bruno's Free Flight to Kenya: Life behind hotel walls A narrative
()
About this ebook
They live in a small self-contained house which is appropiate for a civil servant of the clerical class and a personal secretary.
Every day in Bruno´s life is just the same. The same way to work, the same working routine, the same leisure activities, and every year the usual holidays in Italy on the Adriatic coast, in the same beach hotel.
He forms his opinions by means of television, radio and newspapers. That´s what responsible citizens are made of.
One day, however, his conservative view of society begins to crumble away: Margot tells him that he has won a free flight for the whole family to Kenya at the state lottery A PLACE IN THE SUN. While Bruno had just aimed to become rich and buy himself a social conscience through the lottery ticket, he is forced now to get to know the other side of western life for 2 weeks.

Bruno's Free Flight to Kenya - Wilfried Kriese

Chapter 1 HERE
There´s nothing much to say about Bruno. What is there to be told about Bruno anyway? Except that he is something different, just like all the other people, too, who just live their lives the way they are supposed to. Or why should a creature dwell on earth if not to live, possibly to die? No, let´s not talk about dying, otherwise one might not feel like living anymore, if one begins by looking for a meaning of life that could plausibly explain why there is so much life and death around on earth?
Bruno is in his late thirties, 5 feet 80, of medium weight, that is: he has the slight tendency of a round belly and a flattened bottom. Bruno is proud of not having to wear glasses like so many of his age, instead, he´s beginning to cultivate an inferiority complex due to his slowly vanishing hair. He doesn´t wear suits, but neat trousers nonetheless and plain shirts with no tie and ironed pants, but nobody sees that anyway.
So much for a rough description before going into detail.
Bruno has also the tendency of riding his mountain-bike in his cycle shorts every now and then, and right now he is riding homewards. He feels as happy as a man can whose civil service career has ended. He´s proud of his bicycle in particular, it´s the latest and best among all bicycles. It has 36 gears, forward and backward shock absorbers, a comfortable saddle, an ultra light weight frame (whatever ultra means, but ultra light weight anyway), superb tyres with specially developed brakes.
So he´s on his way to the new housing estate where about 8 years ago, he and his wife built a small, detached, self-contained house, which however lacks a balcony, since Bruno is not a civil servant of the executive class but only of the clerical class. If he was merely the kind of civil servant a caretaker is, he would at best have a terrace-house or rather a small flat in the city. But if he was a civil servant or an employee whose career ended 5 years before Brunos professional advancement, he could have afforded even a semi-detached house with a garden and two rose bushes.
Bruno is riding past the most diverse houses, then rows and rows of terraced houses appear, located only 300 yards away from his proud home. He´s glad that he has achieved more than his father. It´s not that Bruno, the solitary child, thinks bad of his father or even looks down on him, no, he certainly doesn´t, even if he wanted, he couldn´t, God or whoever bless him, since he has to be grateful to his father for so many things after all, just like many a Christian has to be grateful to God: 1. life, 2. genes and 3. inheritance and a fat dowry for the marriage ten years ago and the Original Sin, since his father was a soldier during the Third Reich, but no ordinary soldier, but... no, it would be too much to take for Bruno, if this was decribed in greater detail here; it would certainly be different, had the War been won... Yes, all of this Bruno inherited from his father, although he had been just an ordinary blue-collar worker. And that´s enough for Bruno to be what he is today: a faithful, wealthy voter for the party with the capital C, where conservative is being written as large as Christian. And this exactly
