About event
On becoming and Offense - A Book of Hours
"I have rarely stumbled into a book as accidentally as I did this one. But hardly any have proven to be so absolutely necessary for me."
For his 70th birthday, best-selling author Peter Prange is giving all book enthusiasts a very special gift: in his richly illustrated book of hours "All memory is present" he tells his own life story. And his very personal insights into human existence between becoming and passing away. He also gives an insight into his private photo album - from his childhood in the Sauerland as the son of a bed dealer to the grave site reserved for him in the famous Tübingen city cemetery in close proximity to Hölderlin, Uhland and Walter Jens.
Peter Prange is the great novelist of German and European history. His historical novels have been translated into a total of 24 languages and sold over three and a half million copies. On his 70th birthday, on September 22nd, the autobiographical book of hours "All memory is present" will be published in addition to the second and final volume of his novel "Herrliche Zeiten". In it we experience a new, previously completely unknown Peter Prange.
