More about
Alexander Schnickmann: requiem

The requiem is the last mass one can expect on earth: it is a liturgy for the end. But nowhere is it written that this serious matter cannot also be cheerful. requiem is a rousing, poetic tale that becomes a pleasurable dream journey: From an apartment with a view of the Teufelsberg, we fall through time, float over mountains and valleys, travel across the marrow and the seas. We reach the dolphins in the Landwehr Canal and Santa Catalina Beach in California - before the gates of the underworld open in a completely unexpected place. And every now and then, we blink across to paradise. In a breathless story, Alexander Schnickmann shows what literature is capable of. requiem is a book for one night and for eternity.
