The whole world is one big story, and we play in it

The extensive biographical novel about Michael Ende. Michael Ende was a fascinating person, and the world is hardly imaginable without his imagination. The aim of this novel is to immerse oneself in the imaginative world of Michael Ende, which consciously does not aim to be a fact-oriented biography, but rather an attempt to approach the secrets that Michael Ende did not reveal, with both respect and poetry. His life, spanning nearly a century, is illuminated through his unique perspective on the world, which sought to sense the invisible behind the visible. Written by Charlotte Roth and curated in content by Michael Ende expert Roman Hocke, this work delves into the inner life of the beloved author across generations in a special way – through a wealth of images, settings, and encounters that together form the mosaic of his very own story.
