Books:

Almost everything by Paul Auster, Ray Bradbury, Chuck Palahniuk, Max Goldt, Wiglaf Droste, Roald Dahl und Helge Schneider. And "High Fidelity" by Nick Hornby as well as "Fleisch ist mein Gemuese" by Heinz "Heinzer" Strunk. And a special place in my heart owns Oliver Uschmann for his book "Hartmut und ich" and its following episodes.

Heroes:

When I was little, my heroes were Colt Seavers, Mr. T & Murdoch. When I became a teen, listening to hardcore: Walter Schreifels. But maybe it would have been wiser to decide for someone like Albert Einstein. Or for Morrissey, 'cause he is charming, smart, intelligent, witty and vegetarian at the same time. Unbelievable! The only hero that I kept till my childhood is Bud Spencer. He is the greatest - even without ever seeing his eyes.

Because I'm living of the written word, there are some artists that I really admire for their genius in working with the German language: Max Goldt & Wiglaf Droste.

Es war die falsche Hose

Ich könnte mich irren. Doch werde ich momentan das Gefühl nicht los, dass da ein "neuer" Trend auf uns zurollt. Noch verbirgt er sich zaghaft im subkulturellen Untergrund. Das ist ja oft der Fall. Ers...
