This naturally confused and upset the board and it made Müller a target of the dreaded Ministerium für Staatssicherheit.
In 1989, Klaus received a vision from Heaven itself, a vision of a man in an electric light studded jacket, blathering on about freedom along the wall that divided East from West. Klaus, having received coded instruction via David Hasselhoff's "Looking for Freedom" live performance, legally crossed the border into West Berlin and soon made his way to the United States.
Traveling around the nation looking for employ at non-existent censorship boards, Klaus soon settled in with the academic crowd, who were fascinated by his tales of price controls and Utopian levels of state-involvement in every day life and took up work at a large American university in the Southwest, finding the similarities between today's American universities and the German Democratic Republic of the mid to late '80s numerous.
Klaus insists on wearing a lab coat when he teaches class, despite the fact that he only teaches freshman English courses, because, as he describes it, "English is the most explosive of the sciences."
Klaus writes from his own experiences but also mines the experiences of his students, the faculty, and the staff as he crafts a narrative sure to entice and titillate.
When not teaching class, holding office hours, or writing his erotic short stories, Klaus can usually be found tending the garden at his stately home, tinkering with his collection of Mercedes or reflecting on the good old days of the now-defunct GDR.ver menos
