Ein Mann Von Welt (with English Subtitles) from Antoine Wilson on Vimeo.
When my German publisher Suhrkamp / Insel asked me to introduce myself to the German readers of PANORAMA CITY (titled EIN MANN VON WELT over there), I couldn’t resist trying to speak their language.
For the record, I speak not a word of German.
Location: Oxnard, CA, standing in for the dunes of Sylt.

“This is a book you will hold in your head all day long, a book you will look forward to when you get home from work, a book you will still be savoring as you drift into sleep. Panorama City is often very funny. It is filled with joy and wonder, and a sort of goodness you had stopped believing might be even possible.
