Oliver Wnuk - Wnuk denkt laut und liest was vor - autobiographisch eingetunkte (Lese-)Show
Wnuk acts (reads/plays/tells) from his book (release date: January 29, 2026) "Besser wird’s nicht" (the top title of Spring 2026 from LAPPAN Verlag, illustrated by @kriegundfreitag) and other texts.
"Besser wird’s nicht" is not a sigh of resignation, but an invitation: better than this moment will never be, if we do not make use of it. Oliver Wnuk – actor, father, hypochondriac, and incorrigible pragmatist – dissects the small and large challenges of life: the EGO that always cries "more!"; friendships that want to endure or be let go; norms that constrict; "Being & Appearance" on set and in real life; the top 5 things people regret in the end; the art of staying quiet when everything screams; and the question of how to remain human in a future dominated by AI. Amidst Christmas light chain rampages, an astonishingly absurd ear study, and an unforgettable night in forensic medicine, a tone emerges that is both light and wise: humorous, tender, unkitschy. Wnuk observes without bitterness and encourages us to view ourselves with kindness. A book for chuckling, swallowing, connecting – and spreading the word.
Uncompromisingly honest and open, Oliver Wnuk looks at himself and life and poses all the questions we all have. He is not afraid of the answers at all. That is beautiful, but also light, thoughtful, and very rare. - Katrin Bauerfeind
Oliver Wnuk writes as he acts: dreamy and precise, perplexed and powerful. He often loses and gains from it! And always hilariously, because it’s so sad - I love it. - Annette Frier
Most readers will recognize themselves in many places in what Oliver writes. The book is very personal and precisely because of that, it is also universal – because we, whether old or young, male or female, partnered or single, are ultimately all cut from the same cloth, living in the same world and sharing the same fears and longings… In this sense, "Besser wird’s nicht" is a manual for authenticity. - Juli Zeh in her podcast 'Edle Federn'
