Unter den Menschen

Since the accidental death of his parents, Jan has been living alone on the farm at the edge of the North Sea. Life goes on, but the loneliness gnaws at him. A bit of company would be nice, a woman, conversations, sex, maybe even a family of his own? Jan places an ad and receives a response from Wil. However, it turns out that Wil has her own plan – she is not looking for love, but rather for peace from city life and the disappointments of the past. Her only condition is that she must be able to see the sea from the house where she will live. In a literary, atmospheric style with a keen sense for the quirky, Mathijs Deen describes the process of an unusual pairing. Two people who couldn't be more different try to come together. Can it work out?.
