Life

After graduating from high school, Andreas Neumeister studied ethnology at the University of Munich . Today he lives in Munich . In addition to his writing activities, he runs the mobile club “Medley” with Christos Davidopoulos .

The author Andreas Neumeister is a representative of a variety of pop literature that is formally in the footsteps of authors such as Rolf Dieter Brinkmann , but also uses recent developments such as rap poetry . In his collage-like texts Neumeister paints an idiosyncratic picture of contemporary German reality; Media reception also takes up a large part of the work of the passionate music consumer Neumeister.

His latest work “Could Cologne be” examines the connection between architecture, politics and history: Neumeister uses a language-play technique that ties in with the novel “Gut Laut” to describe metropolises like Berlin, Rome, Paris, New York or Moscow - always on the search for the traces of power that can still be read in the converted, decaying or completely renovated buildings.

Andreas Neumeister received the Alfred Döblin Prize in 1993 and the Bavarian Prize for Literature in 1996 . In 1999 he was awarded a literary scholarship at the Villa Massimo in Rome.
