A Look at the Literary Handwriting

Jähner tells history not dryly, but as a panorama of everyday life, attitude, and upheaval. Rowohlt describes him as an author who combines historical accuracy with narrative ease; Wolf's Time was awarded the Leipzig Book Fair Prize, and Height Rapture also became a bestseller. Precisely this gives Wonderland its tension: It is about furniture, cars, television, rock’n’roll, and the question of how the young Federal Republic reinvents itself.
