The spoilt

When Johann was a child, his father asked him if he had a wish in life. And Johann had not dared to answer: "Once in my life, I would like to kill a man." In the early seventies, Johann comes to the city to study, his head full of chaotic dreams. He meets Christiane and Tommi, who are a couple and take him into their midst. Together, they explore the bright and dark sides of love, caught in a triangle that tightens ever more. Michael Köhlmeier's fascinating novel tells of the false life in the right one. Of past guilt and lifelong innocence. "The Corrupted" won't let anyone go.
