The Day a Chinese ate a bat!

A screwball comedy with unexpected twists, wit and a serious underlying theme

Helmut Stapel is an internationally active journalist and university lecturer in literature and journalism.
His synonym Arthur Block combines tradition with innovation. Arthur Block was the author's grandfather. Helmut Stapel carries on the legacy of the name as Helmut A. H. Stapel with his first names - and as Arthur Block he brings his novels to the world in German and English. The international nature of the synonym also stands for the relevance of the novel's themes. The work on The day a Chinese ate a bat! was supported by a cultural scholarship from the Federal Republic of Germany.
