Autobiography of Roncalli founder Bernhard Paul: My Journey to the Rainbow

The autobiography of the legendary Roncalli founder!
Let us be seduced into dreaming – and believe in the power of dreams!
How imagination, humor and poetry can enchant us, especially in difficult times.

Bernhard Paul gave us the gift of dreams. With Circus Roncalli, he succeeded in reinventing the circus in a world that had forgotten the power of imagination. For the first time, the founder of the Roncalli dream factory now speaks openly and without taboos about the depths of his childhood and his rescue.

His autobiography is a plea for the coexistence of people from all over the world, for creativity and limitless thinking.
The circus director and popular clown Zippo takes us to Vienna in the 1970s alongside Manfred Deix and Gottfried Helnwein, talks about his friendship and break with André Heller, and about his encounters with stars and politicians.
Above all, he writes a great parable for humanity about the importance of creativity in a world that seems ever more crazy and complex.

The author: The flamboyant circus director Bernhard Paul, like his Circus Roncalli, has long been a legend. His life story testifies to the power of dreams: The child of an electrician from a small Austrian village, raised in difficult circumstances, was gripped by circus fever and only much later pursued the absurd dream of his own traveling troupe – and, after many setbacks, led it to worldwide fame.
