"Sooner or later, every person invents a story for himself that he believes to be his life." (Max Frisch)

A life story is not a sum of memories seamlessly strung together, but a conglomeration of continually revised and reinterpreted retrospectives. Accordingly, this is a delicate journey back in time to who one believes oneself to be. The anecdotal travelogue is flanked by scientific miniatures that invite reflection. Stations are, for example, a naive toddler before and a serious boy in and after the war, a rebellious adolescent in the decade of the economic miracle or a dabbling adolescent in the birth years of the Federal Republic - a life story like any and yet like none. By reading it, you might learn something about yourself - or about the story you think is your life.
