Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre's bestseller novel "Noch wach?" addresses the contradictions and gray areas associated with the themes of abuse of power and #MeToo. "It is his best book and the best thing you can read right now," writes the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. After numerous sold-out performances in Germany, Stuckrad-Barre is now coming to Klagenfurt. His appearances have become legendary, and a "normal" reading should certainly not be expected. Stuckrad-Barre is one of the key representatives of pop literature, a writer, television host, and a colorful figure. In the film documentary "Rausch und Ruhm," he publicly shared his struggle with drug and alcohol addiction and the resulting depression; he was in a relationship with Anke Engelke and hosted his own late-night show on ZDFneo. The novel processes his years of insights into the Springer press. "Noch wach?" is to the current media landscape what Heinrich Böll's "Die Verlorene Ehre der Katharina Blum" was: media criticism, language criticism, and power criticism.
