Der Tag, an dem ich meinen toten Mann traf

How well do we know those we love? A great, moving novel about the images we have of each other and the life paths we choose. After Robert's unresolved death, Helene withdraws into herself. She functions, her children are still small, she takes care of her business, but inside her, it is quiet. Until one day, an old friend calls, a former admirer who invites her to the opera. She agrees for the sake of old times. When her companion goes to the champagne stand during the intermission of Mozart's "Abduction from the Seraglio," her gaze falls on a man whose features and movements she believes she recognizes. She stops breathing. Is this her husband? She approaches him. Is this Robert – or someone else?.
