Michael Köhlmeier on « Das Gute »
From Shakespeare to his uncle Gerhard via Coco Chanel, Michael Köhlmeier invites you on a very personal journey. Do we want to live forever if we want to stay young forever? Is boredom the precursor of evil? Are fairy tales only for children, or can they also interest adults? And if goodness exists, can each person make the world a better place? In a conversation with Jérôme Jaminet, Michael Köhlmeier explores the big and small questions of human existence.
