“Get Caught Reading” with Barbara Weiler, MEP

A book about Europe that is so different to what we are used to – exciting, funny, competent – is that possible?
Robert Menasse’s recent essay disproves the common stereotypes about Brussels and the Eurocrats, says Ms Barbara Weiler, Member of the European Parliament. As an enthusiastic German European, I appreciate well founded insights and long-sighted prospects, as well as European utopias. The Heinrich-Mann-Prize will be awarded to Robert Menasse this year – a well-deserved distinction, added Ms Weiler.
