Ludwig Hohl (9 April 1904 – 3 November 1980) was a Swiss writer writing in the German language. Outside of literary mainstream, he spent most of his life in extreme poverty.[1] He is largely unknown to a wider public but has been praised by several well-known authors for his writing and his radical thinking about life and literature.
