Fully into middle age with no skills and no discernable talent there is, of course, only one route for Johannes to take. He will go to America and become famous, America being the place where skill and talent are not prerequisites to fame. All you need is a plan. And Johannes very definitely has that. With the help of his friends he will adopt a new, more flamboyant persona – John F Salinger – chronicling his inevitable rise to fame on film, attracting attention to himself by cutting off pieces of his own body and promising to soon kill himself on camera. His real life back home so hopelessly worn out Johannes will achieve a type of immortality in a truly memorable – and very, very public – death.
