Short story:

A teenage boy who claims to have grown up in the total isolation of a darkened cell is found in the streets of Nuremberg, Germany, Europe. He will become known by the name Kaspar Hauser. His extraordinary claims, and his subsequent death by stabbing will spark much debate and controversy. His story will inspire numerous musical works, including the songs Wooden Horse [Caspar Hauser's Song] by Suzanne Vega, and Kaspar Hauser Could See Stars In The Daytime by Exotic Animal Petting Zoo.
