‘The next day he left for East Prussia, into the solitude of the large hunting grounds. This was where he would recover most quickly. Here the soul of the forest spoke to him. And the people there – they were as reserved and austere as their landscape. In Ottlau, only a flag flew on the castle to welcome him. That was all. The country folk greeted him respectfully and didn’t say an unnecessary word… That was nice, it did him good.’
