Der Junge muss an die frische Luft

With "I'm off now," he has inspired millions of readers to push their personal boundaries. In this book, Hape Kerkeling talks about his childhood; disarmingly honest, with great humor and seriousness. He reflects on his early years in the Ruhr area, Bonanza games, cucumber sandwiches, and the first color television; the ups and downs of a thirty-year turbulent career - and why it can sometimes be a blessing to hide behind a mustache and a men's handbag. He shares touching encounters and losses, courage in life, and the energy to keep getting back up again.
