THE ADVENTURE OF THE PEREGRINE FALCON

by Klaus Kinast, Ines Hanl (Editor)

Overview

The narrative in Klaus P. Kinast's coming-of-age stories in post-war Germany sheds light on the emotional, intellectual, and physical challenges of children of that era. While painting a detailed backdrop of everyday life, the stories are filled with parables and enchanting allegories, originating from the mind of a very imaginative, thoughtful young boy.
Blessed by benign adult negligence during the rebuilding efforts after WW2, and embedded into the complex social structure of a small farming community, the stories' main character enjoys the intensity of minute yet deeply sensual details of a boyhood far removed from adult supervision.

It's the 'Little Prince' meets 'Huckleberry Finn' in adventures somewhat reminiscent of the characters and mores of Wilhelm Busch.

About the Author

Klaus P. Kinast immigrated to Canada as a young man, looking for adventure and inspiration away from a rather oppressive post-war Germany. His widely diverse professional life includes a career as designer for international theme parks as well as the creation of fantasy settings for toy stores and the famous animated exhibits of Germany’s plush toy manufacturer Steiff. These days, when he is not hunched over his writing pad, he expresses himself through his work as a sculptor.
Klaus lives on Vancouver Island, BC with his long-time companion and their family of cats.
