The first incentive for gathering several paragraphs about one’s own life came from a clever comrade from high school.
I supplemented the notes which I had produced following this incentive, with reflections about my father, my flute playing and some classic literature. These are the sources for my the book,
at first published in German under the title
“Tagesreste”
Later I recorded an audiobook whith several natural speakers and my own music, which is for example available in one part
or in three parts starting with
https://www.amazon.com/Tagesreste-Erlebtes-Ertr%C3%A4umtes-Erlesenes-Fl%C3%B6tenmusik/dp/B09X5LYF82
There is now a bid enlarged English version
“Recalling Past Life: About Days Forgotten, Dreams Dreamt, Books Read, and Some Flute Music”
https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/recalling-past-life-franz-rothe/1143778842?ean=9781684864560
This has been published even an audiobook enhanced by some of my flute and piano music

A psrt of the work dealing with my father are republicated recently in the short album, in German:
“Dr. Horst Rothe zum Andenken”

In an attempt to give some more serious look at my activities and music, and in mathematics, too,
I have published a second book
“From My Past Life, mostly Flute Music and Math Writing”.

“From My Past Life: mostly Flute Music and Math Writing”
https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/from-my-past-life-franz-rothe/1147008680?ean=9798341877245
Although these two books are serious and honest about my activities, they try to be entertaining, too.
Hopefully the description of professional growth, and the music playing
which I have practiced with endurance during my entire life
can motivate and benefit a broader audience.
Most recently, I have given ample room to my tendency to be more fantastic:
the borderline to fiction and pure fantasy is no longer clear in a third most recent book.
It is available both in English and in German:
” A Mixture of Memories and Dreams”.
https://draft2digital.com/book/3117381
“Erinnerungen an das vergangene Leben “
https://draft2digital.com/book/3056993
This is also available as an audio book in English
https://franzrothe.bandcamp.com/album/a-mixture-of-memories-and-dreams
All these writings are available on barnes and noble, some on Draft2Digit and other platforms.
