He looks like an escapee from “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.”
He was something of a mad man. Every read Heyworth’s bio?
No – I’m aware that he was, um, troubled.
The Heyworth bio is extremely readable, but exhausting. Two volumes. His “Conversations with Klemperer,” however, is short … and a must-read!
Thank you!
