Werner Herzog's "Of Walking In Ice" – back in print


Of Walking In Ice
Munich – Paris, 23 November – 14 December 1974
Werner Herzog
Publisher: Free Association

“Our inaugural title: the diary of filmmaker Werner Herzog, unpublished in the US since 1978. A modern-day Odyssey, this text follows filmmaker Werner Herzog as he treks through an endless blizzard to save a dear friend from her near-fatal illness. It is filled with philosophical absurdities, humanistic rantings, and poetic descriptions of every snowflake fallen and blister endured during his three-week-long quest. This is an uncompromising Herzog in his own words.”
