Swiss journalist Markus Schneider suffered two strokes after heart surgery. He was then placed in a medically induced coma for five weeks. When he woke up, he found himself surrounded by rhinoceroses. Rhinoceroses everywhere! One was on a ferry on the Rhine in Basel, surrounded by photographers and television crews. The next morning, he was on a plane heading to Sumatra, accompanied by a vanilla ice cream tiger. In this book, Markus Schneider shares everything he experienced and how he learned to swallow, read, walk, and do math again. It is a report on his journey back to life.
