In the organizer's words:

Bestselling author Helge Timmerberg is coming to Leipzig - for an evening full of travel stories, wit and insight into human nature. Timmerberg brought gonzo journalism to Germany and tells his stories with that unique blend of humor, wildness and composure that the world itself has taught him.

He will be reading from his new book - "Bon Voyage: With Papa's Benz to Morocco"

Ten years ago, Helge Timmerberg received his father's old Mercedes - and the blessing: "Bon Voyage."

Thus begins a road trip across the roads of southern Europe to the dazzling alleyways of Marrakesh.

Along the way, a relaxed tour turns into a wild trip:
punctured tires, conversations with the satnav, night-time stages, obstacles, travel fatigue - and a doctor-prescribed testosterone supplement that changes his view of getting older and the freedom of being on the road.

A passionate, honest book about loss, happiness, wide-open roads - and the promise to keep on driving.
