Das Liebespaar des Jahrhunderts

Where does love go when you say it's gone?

A woman wants to leave her husband. After many years of living together and marriage, she is determined and dismayed at the same time: how could it have come to this? As she plans her departure, she goes far back in her mind. There were the heady years of infatuation, at university, as a couple abroad and later with the young children, but there was also the flip side - moments that became turning points and foreshadowed failure. But has something failed at all if it lasts so long? Julia Schoch, literary archaeologist of her life, uncovers what is often hidden in the everyday life of a couple: the patterns of love, the beauty even in disillusionment. A paean to love.
