"33 moments of happiness" ... I'm very disappointed Ingo. Phantasie writing at its best, often no connection, hundreds of names, etc. etc. - the only thing I really liked were his perfect observations and descriptions. I need to give him a chance and read another book.
Ingo Schulze is German born in 1962. I met and heard first about him in May 2008 when he was interviewed at the Goethe Institute in New York City. He signed the book "Simple Stories" for me.
Günther Grass describes him as "our new epic storyteller".
Published in 1995. I read the 2007 German language edition of "Süddeutsche Zeitung / Bibliothek". ISBN: 978-3-86615-505-3.
