About the event

Book launch by Philipp Burger with musical and culinary accompaniment.
Philipp Burger is a man who polarises. Head and singer of Frei.Wild, one of the most controversial German-speaking bands of our time. Rebellious, loud, provocative. But also a loving family man, passionate ArcheHof farmer and open-minded explorer of new territory. Somehow impossible to categorise. He has never made a secret of his youth in the right-wing scene in South Tyrol - and today describes it as the ‘worst time of my life’. Nevertheless, for many people it is clear: ‘He's still right-wing, isn't he?’ In this book, Philipp Burger tells his story ... unfiltered, ruthlessly honest and with a healthy dose of self-reflection. And raises questions that should interest us all: Why does a young man from a loving and educated family become a skinhead and shout right-wing slogans? And more importantly, how did he get out of it? What struggles did he go through, against his own inner demons and against the prejudices of a society that doesn't give second chances? But he also writes about what makes up his life beyond political debates and headlines. How he fulfilled his dream of owning a farm, why ‘home’ is the most inviting concept for him and why he stands up against all extremes.
