The reports by Meienberg caused a stir, attracted attention, and were widely read and discussed. They were thoroughly researched, carefully structured dramaturgically, and brilliantly written. His combative engagement blew a fresh wind into the pretentious, bourgeois atmosphere of the cultural sections, and to this day, they have retained their freshness. The new compilation of previously scattered texts reveals surprising insights. Beyond current events, connections emerge: whether regarding the history of Switzerland, its behavior during World War II, writing, or politics, it is an opportunity to rediscover a virtuoso writer and an exceptionally alert contemporary witness. Also personally: for the first time, the autobiographical texts are presented in a collected and chronological format.
