The new investigative novel by Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre brings starColumnist Nico Fried ponders: What if he had been discovered by Springer boss Döpfner?
Recently, a kind of colleague gave me a piercing look from the front page of “Spiegel”. The magazine had interviewed him and printed a chapter of his new book.

Probably because Mathias Döpfner never discovered me.
