Allein mit allen

Botho Strauß is one of the most stubborn and therefore most formative writers in German literature. He has always resisted the commonplace and has become the most precise observer of our society. Sebastian Kleinschmidt, for many years head of the literary journal "Sinn und Form", has put together a surprising book that comprehensively represents the author's spirit, the way he thinks and feels, his worldly mood, even the logic of his heart: freedom and history, man and woman, the crowd, the house and silence. And especially the devotion to nature and landscape opens a completely different path to a work that is unique in the present day Germany.
