About the Author
Harald Martenstein is one of Germany's most influential columnists. He became known primarily through his many years of work for ZEITmagazin, where he dissected everyday life and social debates with ironic detachment and precise powers of observation. His unconventional style often goes against the grain of the times, exposing the absurd in the mundane. Today, he writes for WELT and BILD, among others. In addition to his columns, Martenstein writes novels and non-fiction books that regularly make it onto the bestseller lists.
