Es könnte schlimmer sein

Anna works for Alpha Solutions, a multinational corporation that has developed a cult-like following. The love for the company is seen as a sacred duty, while personal life is regarded as an outdated idea. Many employees have never left the company premises. When Anna tells a group of rebellious teenagers that they can achieve anything if they just put in the effort, she finds herself doubting her own words for the first time. She is fed up with the lies that are constantly told and repeated. Increasingly, she struggles to trust what she is supposed to think. Her boyfriend Thomas cannot understand this. He has accepted that everything is as it is. He finds her desire for change strange. And he is certain that he wants to spend his life with Anna. After all, they learned through Alpha Solutions' matchmaking program that they are meant for each other. When she breaks up with him, he cannot comprehend how it came to this. With a sober perspective and deadpan humor, Mario Wurmitzer looks at a world in 2037 in his second novel, a world where it is said that things could be even worse. The boundaries of what is possible have shifted somewhat, but not too far.
