captures French best-selling list:
debut has been loved by the booksellers
Christoph Poschenrieder's first novel with Diogenes Die Welt ist im Kopf has been loved and praised by the booksellers.
Christoph Poschenrieder gives us a Schopenhauer who is somewhat different from what he is generally imagined. His hero still sees the world through the lens of his philosophy, it is true, but that philosophy, like the man himself, is surprisingly sensual and lively.
»an amazing debut«
»one of the literary highlights this year«
»I never thought that this topic could fascinate me so much. A gripping novel with an insight into the 19. century«
»Schopenhauer, Lord Byron, Goethe, Brockhaus, Metternich - truely honorable names appear in this book. And all are presented as strong individual characters.«
»Christoph Poschenrieder tells lively and poignant - his language is beautifully chosen.«
»one of the smartest books this spring«
