What They're Saying
Critics Review
A sometimes scurrilous, thoroughly smart and somewhat eccentric book * Goslarsche Zeitung *
This novel is an almost perfect balancing-act of joie de vivre and death wish, light-heartedness and heartbreaking sorrow * Der Stern *
A droll, enchanting and moving story about an unusual friendship, and finding your way back to life * Mein Magazin *
This spring’s quirkiest comedy is about a properly odd couple: a man who’s tired of life, and a flippant tom cat * Playboy *
Amidst gruff dialogue, philosophical anecdotes and situational comedy, a close friendship blossoms between man and beast. A melancholic but nevertheless entertaining story * Berliner Morgenpost *
A novel told from the point of view of a cat who […] helps a man rediscover his lust for life. Wonderfully un-kitschy * Focus *
A light-pawed novel for when the world isn’t as it should be * Kulturtipp *
