Komplett Gänsehaut

After her widely discussed bestseller "Old White Men," Sophie Passmann exposes the unbearable habits of a bourgeoisie that shaped her own identity in her new work. A Passmannian monologue at its best. Just don't become like everyone else around you. Just don't become like you already are. Just grow up quickly to dive into the transcendental form of glorification, celebrating youth as "the best time of life." Sophie Passmann takes aim at everyone, but most devastatingly at herself and her peers. Angry and wicked, gentle and funny at the same time, she draws us into the deep valley of bourgeois boredom in the West German middle class. She vehemently opposes the hedonistic attitude of a notably non-homogeneous generation that is all too familiar to her. This is not a memoir, not a novel, not a biography; it is: literary self-hatred. Do you find that presumptuous? Exactly, and that is precisely what Sophie Passmann wants: to presume to do what she wants to do. Completely spine-chilling!.
