For his novels Dein Name and Große Liebe, Navid Kermani was lauded one of the most inventive and spirited authors of our time. Now his early novels and short stories have been collected in one volume. Four literary highlights generate a rhythmic drumbeat, coalescing into an essential continuity for all the works’ inherent contrasts. Because in each case, the miracle or failure of human existence manifests itself in the banalities of everyday life: whether it’s channeling the spirit of rock music to cure a baby’s colic, the lives of the saints from Cologne’s Eigelstein district, the battles, humiliations and misunderstandings inherent in sexual relationships – or death by SMS.
