reception

His short story wandering in silence , which appeared in the Prager Tagblatt in 1913, is downright prophetic and describes the excesses of modern mobile telephony . On medical advice, a company boss is supposed to recharge his batteries by walking in silence, when in the seclusion of the mountains he suddenly hears something from his backpack - his wife calls him: “Yes, yes, Ludwig, you're amazed? That thing cost a lot of money. A brand new invention: the miniature portable cordless phone. "
