Dear readers, the reading is indeed belong to history but I would like to you in any Case denied! Why I have not been reported before? Well, my little play sports simply turns a lot of good quality video .. That's why I was far too big files are so far online. Only now I found the time to convert them. I hope they are still so good: / but
Jetzt gehts los
FR 3rd! December 2010
It is 18:30 and already dark. After the days before snow was chaos, I'm just glad that the weather today is very beautiful. And nice is everything but snow and ice, because today I have an appointment.
Roger Willemsen waiting in Friedrichshafen. No - wishful thinking;) - he is waiting, of course not, so I have to hurry too. Right on time at 19:45 clock to get the count - from Zeppelin-Haus. My Tickets will see any and I'm a little sad, I paint myself with what I already 2x 18 € else could do. Maybe I would have bought 2 books? On the other hand, I would have never been able to sit in the front row, or does it?
My friend expressed, and although he Willemsen he may refuse to go in the front row. So I remain. On my left an elderly woman and also the seat next to her remains free. To my right, only older people behind me as well. Until shortly before the start I'm probably the youngest in the room - whether it's probably because of the classical background music? - But then comes one day being a whole school class. The room is filled. I look back, to where I suspect my friend and I see another lonely Lord. I wonder if he heard of the lady next to me?
is no time for that question, because the lights are removed and three lovely ladies dressed in black, along with their instruments enter the stage. Roger Willems behind them. He has only one microphone in hand and also on the table where he sits down is not a book. ! Forget
welcomed with no words - just music of the ensemble Disinvolto. The violin, viola and the flute sound. First, I still fear it might be too loud, the sound is distributed optimally in the room and you hear both at the rear as well as good front. After the welcoming music Willemsen kicks off with an introduction to the book "The ends of the world," he tells of the Eifel, the snow and the boy.
modest all know now why there is this book, why he seeks the ends of the world and for whom. Another piece is presented by the ladies and Willemsen continues talking. But now he tells all-new stories - no, not quite true. The stories, the trips he has already described in his book "The ends of the world." But he says he talks freely and as they could not read. I feel very soon that Roger Willemsen special focus on the funny moments. It lacks the bad experiences - but that's a good thing. Who wants to cry for so much money? Paying for laughter, which seems acceptable.
Once a chapter is over, the women start with the music. And this music is perfect for any trip. And then it falls on me yet. Yes, once I have to really even fight back tears. For despite all the wit, the Willemsen is into it in the narrative, the chapter on Minskt and the old dying man but very sad and at the end this violin music ....
about me to other thoughts I try to bring me to remember the chapter in the book and why exactly this is not me so much. For I must confess, I have after all the interviews and video features just hoping most of this chapter. And now I see it. No matter how good writing can Willemsen, no matter how great words he finds that triggers emotions but only his voice, from his facial expression, because only then you feel what he must have felt.
At this moment I know that Roger Willemsen - although he has been one of the best German writers - is a much better storyteller! And as I begin to envy all the students who attend his lectures may be lucky! And I also have an end of the world discovered: (
To give you a better picture of the event, I recorded some snippets for you:)
