Beschreibung
The long-awaited memoirs of Werner Herzog describe, in 36 short passages, scenes and images from the incredibly rich life of the author, supplemented by his brief reflections. They capture a life spanning a century that could not fit into any of his famous films. The young, eternally hungry Herzog, who fled with his mother from bombed-out Munich to a poor village in the Alps, grows into a young man wandering alone through the world, soon facing death in the fevered corners of Egypt. He is an enthusiast and ambition-driven individualist who quietly converses with the raging Klaus Kinski in the jungle and weeps at the deathbed of his friend Bruce Chatwin. Whether he speaks about situations during filming that sometimes endanger the lives of others or about his relationship with Kinski, risk and strong emotions are always at play. This book, full of unbridled desire for life and wonder at our beautiful world, is a true literary event.
