Klaus Mann (1906-1949), second child and eldest son of Katia and Thomas Mann, was a political intellectual and theater founder, world traveler and dazzling personality - and one of the most important authors of his generation. His stories from exile (contained in the volume "Speed" // Rowohlt) deal with outsiders and lonely people, reflect life in emigration and the pull of intoxicants (which he himself enjoyed in abundance). We listen to the story "Hennessy with three stars", a spectacle "full of drunkenness, crazy joy and wild fraternization", at the end of this year's SommerLese. Santé!
