He wants to become an artist, nothing else. That's why the narrator tears out of the hated monastery school on his 14th birthday, hitchhikes to Vienna and is introduced at the Academy of Fine Arts. Direct, gripping, background-funny, so Hans-Georg Behr tells a piece of crazy-fantastic contemporary history in his autobiography. It begins where Behrs highly acclaimed "Almost a Childhood" (2002) ended, namely in the early fifties, when the former "stuttering trottle" is assigned a chamber as a place to stay by the rector of the academy. And it ends when the country estate of the wonderfully Kakan grandfather burns down: in between we learn of an unsentimental journey to Hermann Hesse to Ticino and a volunteer with Bert Brecht at the Berlin Ensemble, from the revolutions in the legendary Café Hawelka in Vienna, a one-year Oriental trip and the beginning of a new era in London, the in the sign of Sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll.
