Michael Schindhelm | MY SWISS ADVENTURE

My Swiss Adventure

Essay

Schindhelm describes his most intense encounters: with a pastor from Glarner, with Vera Oeri of Basel’s elite “Daig” class, with a Tibetan cook, with Thomas Borer. Simultaneously Schindhelm, who the Stasi once listed as an ‘unoffical contributor’, reveals a meeting with the Swiss secret service in the back room of a Basel police station. Everything is observed shrewdly, but expressed tenderly: a kind of declaration of love to Switzerland.
