Klaus Reichert: I welcome whatever happens next, Gebunden

Klappentext

Klaus Reichert is one of the defining voices of German-language essay writing. His book "Wolkendienst: Figuren des Flüchtigen", shortlisted for the German Non-Fiction Prize, brought his work to a wider readership.

With "I welcome whatever happens next", he returns to a subject that has accompanied him for decades: his relationship with John Cage. Emerging from encounters, conversations, and shared work, this is not a conventional artist portrait but an open, fluid constellation of memories and reflections.

Reichert writes in his distinctive: precise, understated, with a fine sensitivity to transitions - between music and language, between listening and thinking. Again and again, the focus is on attention: to sounds, to texts, to another person.

A quiet, thoughtful book for readers who value the essay as a form of thinking - and who find in Reichert's writing that rare combination of clarity and openness that makes his work so distinctive.
