WITH YOU, I WOULD LIKE TO DRINK COFFEE IN HEAVEN - Reading with Sarah Lorenz
"You see, Masha, I followed your advice: I was wise and stuck to miracles." And it is indeed a miracle that Elisa has still managed to cope with her disastrous life. She easily tells the poet Mascha Kaléko, whom she admires so much, about difficult things, about her time in a home, homeless on Cologne's Domplatte, always in search of security, which for a long time she only found in books. But she also talks about her unconditional longing for love, her preference for small thatched-roof houses, frothy cappuccino, books, men, friendship and, above all, the fact that anything is possible. A literary declaration of love to a great poet and to all the wonders that life has in store.
Sarah Lorenz was born in Eckernförde in 1984 and lives and writes in St. Pauli. She is a trained bookseller and is currently studying social work. She has been writing the PMS-Ultras column in the taz since 2023. On the internet, she puts a small town of people to bed every night under the pseudonym Buchi Schnubbel. "Mit dir, da möchte ich im Himmel Kaffee trinken" is her debut novel.
