Self-determined life in the rhythm of nature
Franz Josef Keilhofer is a real original: He lives and works in harmony with nature, is a boy from the Berchtesgadener Land and lives in the family farmhouse from 1710 at the foot of the Watzmann. Keilhofer is a woodworker – above all. Here he talks about his special relationship with wood and what nature teaches us. He takes us into the foggy undergrowth, explains why the felled oak tree is stored in the ground, that the yew tree on the workbench gives off the smell of dark chocolate and why each individual piece of wood always requires its very own type of processing. Franz Josef Keilhofer's world seems to consist only of trees and wood and yet it teaches the whole existence. A book about finding the right tree and recognizing the right life -
