Sir, – The article “New Monasticism movement: a modern take on an old tradition” (Life, February 13th) states that Dietrich Bonhoeffer “wrote about new ways of being in the community after the second World War”. Please note that Dietrich Bonhoeffer was hanged by the Nazi regime in the final month of the second World War, on April 9th, 1945 in Flossenbürg concentration camp. – Yours, etc,
