Der Steinesammler

Anton Braden has two passions: he collects stones and he loves Milli, whom he cannot rely on. Quiet, persistent, and obsessed, Braden pursues his passions until the conflicts and tensions in his village in the Eifel erupt in an act of violence that drives him towards a new beginning. With his first beautifully written novel "The Stone Collector," Norbert Scheuer has laid the foundation for his literary prose work, which uniquely creates a microcosm where we can recognize the desires, beauty, failures, and ever-new beginnings of life everywhere. Norbert Scheuer is a great storyteller, and it is time to make this novel accessible again.
