"Marica Bodrožić's texts and this novel are a school of perception, from the smallest inner stirrings to great brutality. Here, the human pathetic and the timelessly fundamental are explored. As if in passing, Marica Bodrožić tells a completely under-examined German migration story and the coming of age of a strong main character, with literary depth and sophisticated wit. A novel that brings insights to the surface of your own consciousness long after you've finished reading it." Vivian Perkovic, 3SAT Kulturzeit
