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 * 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 light-pawed novel for when the world isn’t as it should be * Kulturtipp *
