Synopsis

What truth is I decide! This maxim carries Gustav Bülow through the seventy years of his life, from the end of the Second World War to the collapse of the GDR to the turn of the millennium. He is an artist, researcher, womanizer and world savior. Its reference system is the realm of imagination. 'Who has problems with it is an idiot.' He invents blood-bursting war adventures, including a mysterious encounter with Hitler personally, a marriage with a Mohawk in Canada and adventures with wolves in the middle of civilisation. The reality is always close to Gustav on his heels, but he is always a nose ahead of the truth. Wolf Kampmann tells the life story of a impostor with word witz and takes readers into a colourful world full of courage, imagination and hussar pieces. With a single phrase, Wolf Kampmann - like his main character - can 'set hundreds into solidification or stir to tears'. This novelist promises: 'You will all be wondering!'
