How I Invented Sex (MP3 CD)

A world city with heart, a nearly village-like neighborhood, a very Catholic family, and Franz Josef Strauss - rarely has a youth in the 70s been told so beautifully. For several weeks now, twelve-year-old Peter Gillitzer has been collecting mysterious words in a notebook. Immaculate and devotion, conception and feast, infallibility. He is an altar boy and pious, as Catholic as his parents, whom he knows he cannot ask about the meaning of these words. And certainly not ones like fornication, intercourse, porn, which he picks up in adult conversations or from his classmates, who all seem to possess a knowledge that is not available to him. What choice does he have but to pretend? Otherwise, he would remain the inconspicuous Gillitzer, who doesn’t even make it onto the list of boys desired by girls. Thankfully, a large poster of Franz Josef Strauss hangs over his bed, offering him some advice. Peter Probst lovingly and humorously narrates the challenges of puberty and how the youth revolt of the 70s breaks into a conservative milieu and changes society. To the dismay of adults, and for our reading pleasure.
