Over the 29 years of his short life, Franz Michael Felder worked
with furious productivity to better himself and the lives of those
around him. From his humble origins in the Austrian village of
Schoppernau, he went on to found workers' cooperatives, a political
party and even a public library in his own home, while also writing
many literary works. A Life in the Making is both the culmination
of this extraordinary career and a chronicle of its development. It
is a story of early hardship and fortitude, of Felder's relentless
zeal for learning and his lifelong effort to reconcile his own
expanding horizons with the enforced confines of the community he
was born to. Unfolding in prose of limpid beauty, A Life in the
Making becomes a deeply moving tribute to Felder's wife Nanni, and
to his enduring belief in the possibility of a better world.
