Life could be so easy if it weren't for other people. And the closer the family ties, the worse its gets. In these two plays, Wilhelm Genazino, one of the most astute and ironic chroniclers of everyday life and its pitfalls, illuminates family life in all its grim – and comical – aspects. When Sophie has to attend a funeral, husband Karl, the "house gnome", interrupts his customary TV sports viewing, rolls off the sofa, and goes off in search of new female inspiration. In the end, he sticks with Sophie – out of boredom and desperation. But what is funnier than other people's despair? Even the heartfelt plea, "Dear God, make me blind!" is of no avail – Genazino examines family matters so mercilessly that you will laugh until you weep....
