Written by Germany's #1 bestselling author Juli Zeh, About People takes place in the middle of lockdown in spring 2020 and subtly describes the social and very private consequences of the pandemic. Fleeing stay-at-home orders in the big city, Dora and her dog move to the countryside to sit out the pandemic. She knows that Bracken, a village in the middle of nowhere, isn't the idyll most city dwellers dream of, but she's desperate for space and a change of scene. The quaint old house she's saved up for needs work, weeds have taken over the yard, and her skinhead neighbor fits all the stereotypes. Just what is Dora really looking for? Distance from her boyfriend Robert, whose climate activism has crossed into obsession? Refuge from her inner turmoil? Clarity on how the whole world got so messed up? As Dora tries to keep her demons in check, unexpected things start happening all around her. Juli Zeh's epic new novel explores our present predicaments, biases, weaknesses, and fears, but-above all--it reveals the strengths that come to light when we dare to be human.

Dora zieht von Berlin auf Land, in ein kleines Dorf. Sie muss dringend aus Berlin raus, es ist gerade der erste Corona Lockdown. Alle haben Dora vor der Provinz gewarnt. Dieser Roman von Juli Zeh ist kontrovers, liebevoll, empathisch, lustig und traurig. Er bewegt Herz und Verstand und erzählt in einer schönen Sprache von unterschiedlichen Menschen, von zwischenmenschlichen Beziehungen und Vorurteilen. Ein wirklich gelungener Roman, kann ich sehr empfehlen.

Schreibt großartig in allen in Ihren Büchern. Man muss aber auch bereit sein, mit dem "Themen" die angesprochen werden, auch sich damit auseinander setzen zu können.
