Nicht nur, dass ich diesem großartigen Schauspielnachwuchs in Tyll beim Brillieren zusehen durfte, André stand einfach als Krankheitsvertretung auf der Bühne 💖

Since tumblr is talking a lot about jesters recently, may I recommend a novel?

It's one of those books that I only didn't read the whole way through in a single day because I was literally falling asleep. I don't know how Kehlmann does it, but he does.

This book is loosely based on Till Eulenspiegel, the protagonist of an 14th century story collection about his exploits as a jester in the late 13th century. I learned about him in elementary school.

Daniel Kehlmann takes the concept and places it int he mids of the 30-years-war, a particularly nasty period in european history, which as a whole is very nasty already. The novel is "high art" in that the snobby book people like it, but also surprisingly fun and dark and engaging. It takes the form of a picaresque, or Schelmenroman, a genre that tumblr should be very interested in.

All in all: Good book! The snobby book people are right on this one!
