Ernst Jünger’s “Godenholm” available in English

February 21, 2015

  Wonderful news! Edda celebrates spring by publishing a long awaited book: Ernst Jünger’s Besuch auf Godenholm in English.  Ernst Jünger’s dream-like story Visit to Godenholm takes the reader on a strange journey to an island off an unknown Scandinavian coastline. Visitors to Godenholm are received by the powerful philosopher-magician Schwarzenberg and suddenly all concepts of time and space are upheaved. The visitors now have to face their own expectations and inner processes in this remarkable and potent psychic freezone. Ernst Jünger (1895-1998) is one of German literature’s strangest birds.

I asked Freddie the same questions and recorded Blue For Two performing the very same songs. The result is now a time-traveling combo-film with both the new and old sections and it’s called Ingenting är sant, allting är möjligt (“Nothing Is True, Everything Is Possible”). The film will be premiered at the Tempo documentary festival in Stockholm in early March. Here’s a link to Tempo. If you are interested in arranging a screening, feel free to get in touch. It’s in Swedish but will soon be available in a version...
