Reading & Talk | Moderation: Alexander Solloch (NDR Kultur)
This unsparing yet tender novel tells the story of two millennials in search of love. What begins in a frenzy becomes a struggle for closeness and self-assertion, a game of devotion, dependence and intellectual trial of strength. What lies behind the presumed inability of an entire generation to relate? What comes after moving in together and having a dog? Sarcastic, absurd and entertaining - a wonderfully enlightening imposition, not for today's generation of 40-somethings.
Dana von Suffrin, born in 1985, studied in Munich, Naples and Jerusalem. She has received numerous awards for her novels, including the Klaus Michael Kühne Prize (2019) and the Chamisso Prize (2025).
