Content
Stories about love, or what you might call love.
In these stories full of erotic sensuality, Julia Franck writes about veiled lusts and open desire, about yearnings that leave behind only tristesse, and about the lure of the forbidden.
‘Only in the work of Julia Franck is there such love and such hate.’
Süddeutsche Zeitung
