I meet him at a beautiful afternoon, this very intense man. He was left behind by his mother in the GDR as a small child. Than he grew up in orphanates in the GDR with parents by adoption. Some how he was a writer, with more or less sucsess. Stoped writing at 2001 and by the way he got the adress of his "missing mother" by the former minister of defense Mr. Sharping.

His book about his personal relationship with his nonmother "Rabenliebe" got him the Ingeborg-Bachmann-Award 2010. A must to read but if you ever get the chance to meet him DON'T MISS IT.
