HEINRICH VON KLEIST - GÜNTER BLAMBERGER GEBUNDEN

Kleist has fascinated readers like no other German writer. How did a one-time soldier with an
unremarkable literary education become one of the greatest innovators of German literature?
What allows for the tragedy of his life? In what ways does his work speak to us today? In his
great biography Günter Blamberger gives us a new Kleist: Unlike conventional approaches  he
does not try to understand Kleist's life from the perspective of its end-from the perspective
of his suicide as the final catastrophe of a life in permanent crisis. Rather  he remains at
eye-level with Kleist's present  narrating from the perspective of Kleist's experience-in the
moment with him-capturing the unsettling or the astonishing in each phase of his life  the
explosive nature of each one of his risky experiments in living and writing. The result is an
indispensable work of German literary history-a vivid  captivating biography of one of the
greatest literary geniuses of all time.
