The writer
Helga Schneider was born on the 17 November 1937 in Steinberg, Kreis
Goldberg (at one time Third Reich, now Poland).
She spent her infancy in Berlin, her adoloscence and youth in Austria,
her second youth and maturity in Italy. Let Me Go is Helga's first book
with Walker & Company.
Helga Schneider and the famous film director Lina Wertmuller have
extracted a theatrical piece from the text of Let Me Go, leaving
the same title, which, along with the actors Milena Vukotic (in the role
of Helga) and Roberto Herlitzka (in that of Helga's mother), two
prestigious theatrical actors under the direction of Lina Wertmuller,
enjoyed extraordinary success at the Eliseo theatre in Rome. The scenes
and costumes are by Enrico Job. First-time music release: Italo Greco
and Lucio Gregoretti.
