“I don’t make mistakes.” – Tobias Rüther and Anneke Kim Sarnau on Wolfgang Herrndorf
There are autobiographical traces throughout the works of Wolfgang Herrndorf. There is no picture that he painted, no cartoon he drew, no book he wrote where he did not process his experiences from the time he was a young boy staring out at the sky from his bedroom in the northern German village of Garstedt. Herrndorf’s childhood view of the world accompanied him his entire life and had an undeniable influence on his work. Perhaps that was the secret of his great success; it was definitely the secret of his classic “Why We Took the Car”.
In Herrndorf – A Biography, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung journalist and author Tobias Rüther takes us on a journey through the life, pictures and stories of the exceptional artist.
Anneke Kim Sarnau reads from the works of Wolfgang Herrndorf, who died far too young but left behind unforgettable stories – including his own.
