As profound and thought-provoking as the best of his films, Herzog’s The Twilight World delivers as a superb yet painful parable on the fleeting nature of purpose.”— San Francisco Chronicle Mi papá viene enfermo desde hace días.

Werner Herzog Tells a Book Club Why The Peregrine Is One of His Favorite Books, a 20th-Century Masterpiece E mentre l'imperatore giapponese fece sapere a Herzog che sarebbe stato ben lieto di incontrarlo, lui, con un ardire sorprendente, dichiarò di non voler incontrare l'imperatore. A nulla valse la stretta della moglie per tappargli la bocca. Ormai la gaffe era fatta: “Poi, da quel silenzio, si alzò una voce e chiese chi, se non l’imperatore, avrei desiderato incontrare in Giappone. Senza riflettere, risposi: Onoda.The men were constantly on the move, building and abandoning crude huts. Every sign of civilization that blew in - a newspaper, a pornographic magazine, a piece of chocolate bar – was assumed to be a trap. Sometimes they were right, because the last man, his last comrade, was shot in an ambush by Filipino soldiers.

This book is a poem, an opera without music, a film without images. It presents a true fact of the human heart and invites us to consider it without commentary or judgment. Just to see it as it is. It's inexplicable in all the ways that people are inexplicable. Wer jeden Morgen und jeden Abend sein Herz prüft und dadurch fähig wird, so zu Leben, als wäre sein Körper schon tot, den macht dieser Weg frei. Er wird sich nie etwas zuschulden kommen lassen und wird auch in seinem Gewerbe erfolgreich sein." (Übersetzung hier.) The author of this book, Werner Herzog (b. 1942), is a German film maker. This may be his first novel. All his other books seem to be autobiographical stories related to his filmmaking. The author befriended Onoda on a trip to Japan and interviewed him about his time in the jungle, although again, he states that this book is a fictionalized story based in reality. Raup, Jordan.

I really enjoyed Herzog's interviews inside and about jungles because the idea of jungles being lawless, horrifying Molochs of debauchery and murder is wild. To me at least. Not because jungles aren't about animals breeding and eating each other but more because I feel that the breeding and murder in the jungle has a sort of natural harmony to it, while we "civilized" people have brought breeding and murder (for food) to a whole new perverted level. Compared to big animal farms, I really don't see the jungle as a place of horror at all.#

Surely the strangest, strongest walking book I know ... only Herzog could have written this weird, slender classic' ROBERT MACFARLANE In the winter of 1974, upon learning of the impending death of his friend Lotte H. Eisner, Herzog began a three week pilgrimage, traversing the route from Munich to Paris on foot. He believed this act of devotion would prolong Eisner's life. During these travels Herzog kept a diary which would eventually be published as Of Walking in Ice. In his first novel, Herzog tells the incredible story of Hiroo Onoda, a Japanese soldier who defended a small island in the Philippines for twenty-nine years after the end of World War II. It is not healthy if you circle too much around your own navel. And it is not good to recall all the trauma of your childhood. It's good to forget them. It's good to bury them. Not in all cases, but in most cases. So psychoanalysis is doing that. I do not deny that it is good and necessary in a very few cases. Yes, I admit it, but it's not my thing. But I keep telling men ... "Rather dead than going to a psychiatrist." But at the same time, "Rather dead than ever wearing a toupee." My hair is thinning and it's just accepted as it is. ... Women would immediately agree with me. You cannot live with a man who starts to wear a toupee and thinks he's handsome now and rejuvenated.
