Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868–1937) beschrieb das Zeitgeschehen der Jahre 1933-37. Seine Berichterstattungen geben präzise Einblicke in die politischen und gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen und sind Zeugnisse vom Leben und Denken eines aufgeklärten europäischen Intellektuellen. Kessler floh schon im März 1933 nach Frankreich und Spanien. Im Jahr 1935 wurden seine Bücher öffentlich verbrannt, aber bis zu seinem Tod führte er Gespräche mit Zeitgenossen und hielt die politischen Ereignisse akribisch fest. Kesslers Berichte sind ein wichtiger Beitrag zur Geschichtsschreibung dieser Zeit.

Hear the man himself as he reads some of his finest newspaper essays, offering his observations on a variety of topics, including politics and politicians, the economy, doctors, sex, clothes, football, toilet paper, ice cream, and cough drops.

Zum 80. Geburtstag des Autors endlich wieder erhältlich: Günter Wallraff wagt sich seit Jahrzehnten in die verschiedensten Rollen, gibt sich immer wieder neue Gesichter, geht an seine Grenzen, erfindungsreich und kompromisslos. Getarnt als Hans Esser enthüllte er in seinem Buch "Der Aufmacher" die Praktiken der Bild-Zeitung. Für "Ganz unten" lebte er als Türke Ali am Rande der Gesellschaft. Er teilte das Schicksal von Obdachlosen oder ließ sich als simulierender Alkoholiker in die geschlossene Psychiatrie einweisen.
