Hawking's Dream

Beschreibung

Stephen Hawking - world famous professor and astro-physicist, but what does he dream about? Sex amongst the stars, inflatable whales and powerful, nightmarish figures from politics and industry campaigning to introduce euthanasia into Europe. Riess, himself confined to a wheelchair, takes a satirical look at recent social developments and the reappearance of policies from Europe's darkest hour.

Autor

Erwin Riess, born in 1957, was confined to a wheelchair after a spinar tumor, and feels this has enabled him to write - often satirically, as reflected in his play Glimpses of a Cripple or He Who Sits in a Wheelchair Looks Under the Skirts of Reality. Novelist and essayist as well as playwright, since 1994 he has also been an activist for disabled issues.
