ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
"The Dinner" by Herman Koch tells the story of two brothers and their wives during a tense dinner, where they discuss a terrible secret involving their teenage sons. The narrative explores complex family dynamics and moral ambiguities as the characters struggle with guilt, responsibility, and the desire to protect their children. The story reveals how hidden tensions and secrets surface throughout the meal, exposing the characters' flaws and their capacity for violence and manipulation. The novel delves into themes of social class, ethics, and the contrast between public image and private behavior. The use of dark humor and irony emphasizes the characters’ moral murkiness and the ambiguity of their actions.
