Wenn es dunkel wird

Peter Stamm tells us in his stories how the world transforms when darkness falls. Georg is soon to retire. At the office, he is already being overlooked, and at home, no meal awaits him. He seems to be slowly dissolving, and an unnamed terror grips him. Sabrina feels flattered when an artist approaches her. But when she sees herself as a work of art for the first time, she shudders. David wants to rob a bank. He already has a mask with him, a squirrel mask. However, he won't use it today. He has heard that bank robbers often observe every detail for weeks before they strike. He begins to lurk. We have grown accustomed to the world, and suddenly it becomes eerie to us. What if our fantasies become more real than reality? Peter Stamm's stories explore the fragility of the world, the dizziness, and the haunting nature of love.
