'Small World' by Martin Suter is a captivating family drama that also incorporates elements of a classic coming-of-age novel and thriller.

The small world of factory owner's son Thomas Koch revolves mainly around his parents and his friend Konrad. As a child of wealthy parents, he doesn’t have to worry about poverty and can enjoy his life. Thomas and his friend Konrad couldn’t be more different; one is rich, the other comes from humble beginnings, yet these differences do not disturb their friendship.

From a young age, they spend a lot of time together, and even as they grow older, their lives develop in close proximity. Both maintain their 'Small World' connection, which Martin Suter describes as very harmonious. Even in old age, the two men stand by each other. Konrad is always there when Thomas needs him. Thomas notices significant changes in himself. He increasingly struggles with his short-term memory and even causes a fire. He is haunted by memories from his childhood that lead him to investigate his family history. However, Thomas's mother wants to prevent this - for good reason.

Although 'Small World' began as a harmonious story about the friendship of young adults, Martin Suter takes the narrative in a turn towards a family drama.
