About Myself

The phenomenon of Wolf Messing sparked plenty of controversy and various opinions—both during his life and after his death. Some sincerely believed he was a fraud and a showman, others suspected that the master used radio communication, and there were also those who dreamed of turning Messing into a lab rabbit and putting him in a magnetic cage. One can only imagine how insulting and unpleasant it must have been for Wolf Grigorievich to hear such rumors about himself. After all, everything he did on stage and in the hall was open from all sides, and suspecting him of ventriloquism, of extremely advanced finger dexterity, or of coded communication with assistants would be at least unreasonable. In this audiobook, you’ll hear an exceptionally candid account by Wolf Messing about himself. Without embellishment or unnecessary lyrical digressions. Only the truth—and nothing false.
