Krátky popis
'A masterly achievement, a work of imaginative grandeur and
complete artistic control' Ian McEwan'Brilliant and unputdownable'
Salman RushdieHe's a trickster, a player, a jester. His handshake's
like a pact with the devil, his smile like a crack in the clouds,
he's watching you now and he's gone when you turn. Tyll Ulenspiegel
is here!In a village like every other village in Germany, a scrawny
boy balances on a rope between two trees.He's practising. He
practises by the mill, by the blacksmiths, he practises in the
forest at night, where the Cold Woman whispers and goblins roam.
When he comes out, he will never be the same.Tyll will escape the
ordinary villages. In the mines he will defy death. On the
battlefield he will run faster than cannonballs.In the courts he
will trick the heads of state. As a travelling entertainer, his
journey will take him across the land and into the heart of a
never-ending war. A prince's doomed acceptance of the Bohemian
throne has European armies lurching brutally for dominion and now
the Winter King casts a sunless pall.Between the quests of fat
counts, witch-hunters and scheming queens, Tyll dances his mocking
fugue, exposing the folly of kings and the wisdom of fools. With
macabre humour and moving humanity, Daniel Kehlmann lifts this
legend from medieval German folklore and enters him on the stage of
the Thirty Years' War. When citizens become the playthings of
politics and puppetry, Tyll, in his demonic grace and his thirst
for freedom, is the very spirit of rebellion - a cork in water, a
laugh in the dark, a hero for all time.
