One day Ludwig starts telling Daniel his story: how he helped political refugees to escape to Casablanca; how he lost everything and what happened then; how he and Gina travelled the world. But there was more. It took a long time before Daniel discovered the banker's secret: the dark events that once dominated his past and that even Gina didn't know. Despite all their differences, the friendship between the two unlike couples grows over many years. Then, one day, Ludwig's past catches up with him.

  • - Journeys beyond time and infinity

    A riveting philosophical sci-fi mystery. Brilliant, creative, humorous, and provocative. From the author of "The 92-Year-Old Lady Who Made Me Steal a Dead Man's Car".What you should know before you buy this bookThis is a complicated book. Of all my books, it is the most complicated one. It is also a funny book, but-and how can I put that without offending you?-your sense of humour may not get it if the quality of your mind is mutilated due to watching too many mindless TV shows. As the title says, it is an unedited book. So, don't complain about mistakes. There could be few, there could be many. If your English is below average as mine, you may be lucky and not notice any mistakes. But whatever errors you discover, they are part of the deal. Very importantly, this book is a serious read from a metaphysical and philosophical perspective. However, sadly, most of you may not understand that; some of you, however, will. What else should you know? This book is a hell of an entertaining novel with a crazy plot. So, if the metaphysical and philosophical stuff doesn't click with you, just ignore it and focus on the plot. That should be okay as long as you don't ask stupid questions like, "Is this realistic?" The answer to that question is always, "Yes, it is!" Everything is realistic if you see it in the context of its relevant reality. You see, this is where the crazy plot and the serious metaphysical contemplations merge. Does that sound confusing? It shouldn't, provided that you maintained enough of your childhood's inquisitiveness. Well, I'll leave it at that. Just read the book. It's not really complicated at all as long as you manage to negotiate your thinking around the little challenges mentioned above.Initially, each of the following three parts was planned to be a separate book. However, thematically-especially from a philosophical perspective, but also as far as the plot is concerned-these three parts complement each other, and it was decided to combine them into one book.ONE: Unedited MemoriesJust in the event that Emma #2 crashed the car and killed us both or only me or should the gangsters or only one of the gangsters, which would have been enough, manage to kill me with a well-aimed bullet, if I didn't manage to shoot him first, my other self and I decided to separate before the race so that at least one of us would survive in the event of a disaster of the kind mentioned in the first half of this "crazy" sentence.TWO: Unedited RealitiesWe had this long conversation about the end of time, God's residence, and what the universe and BMWs are really made of, at first between ourselves, then later a fly, the gentleman with the Space SUV and two robots joined us. That conversation went from Tuesday 8 a.m. until 11 p.m. the same day. That's a long time.On the other hand, Einstein tells us that time is an illusion, and that reality isn't what we think it is. These are issues that needed to be clarified, which is precisely what we did.THREE: The End of EternityThe year is 2090. I, Carl Andrew Quinton, am 94. Inexplicably, my appearance hadn't changed since 2018, when I was 22. There is an explanation.This explanation represents literary and scientific breakthroughs. There is no other literary and scientific work like it and no appropriate introduction for the reading adventure that's waiting for you could be found anywhere in the universe. So, this here will have to do.Sounds exaggerated, I know, but it is true.Scientists and literary critics around the world will discuss, argue and get excited about the thrilling metaphysical revelations in this book for decades to come.You, the reader, will find out how the world was created and why it can be both at the same time, infinitely large and tiny as nothingness.

    A young man is found unconscious in a park in London. He has no injuries, no illnesses. Weeks later, the doctors still can't explain why he hasn't regained consciousness. A detective, a homeless man and a writer try to find answers to the questions surrounding him. A widely traveled elderly man is working on his memoirs. He had left home at the age of nineteen. The decades that followed were dominated by his determination to overcome professional and personal adversities. About half way through the book, the young man and the elderly man meet under extraordinary circumstances - they "collide", may be a better word - and seemingly unanswerable questions emerge. One man's search for answers takes him around half the globe to Western Australia. The Mysterious Man is a major novel that encompasses three genres: literary fiction, mystery and memoirs.

    Henry Miller's son Tony writes about this book: Dear Fred, I rushed immediately to the manuscript and began reading with wild abandon. I can see clearly your influences. And I really laughed out loud about our casual meeting. You have such a good way with words. I am totally delighted by your book. You have captured certain essences and smells and ways of doing things. I am sure The Short and Wonderful Life of Henry Hemingway will be a wonderful success. All the best, Tony Bruce L. Russell, Author of Channelling Henry, writes: Fred Schäfer takes on two of the 20th Century's literary giants. The story takes off when he arrives in New York. Miraculously, he meets an old mate of Hemingway's from the Toronto Star. He enjoys a bevy of buxom beauties, in true Miller style. Not as macho as Ernest, Fred manages to inject the book with a unique philosophy, somewhere between Schopenhauer and Bob Dylan. Fred's single-minded search for a muse, his struggle with his demons and his refreshingly unique literary voice make his memoirs a brilliant book, a page-turner, provocatively humorous and acutely reflective.
