David Wagner wanders through books and libraries, reading in Elba, Austria, and online. He finds books on the street and in his kitchen, hikes through Thessaly with Apuleius's Golden Donkey, drives through New Jersey with Tony Soprano, and goes to Ikea in Berlin-Spandau with Iris Hanika. Wagner talks about reading and writing in London and Venice, strolls through new releases by Krisztina Tóth, Emmanuel Carrère, or Nicholson Baker, explores classics like "Robinson Crusoe" and "The Count of Monte Cristo," or lies in bed with his notebook watching series. In doing so, he presents himself, as Michael Buselmeier praised on Saarländischer Rundfunk, as an empathetic, fabulously relaxed, and witty essayist.
