Germany's most successful Ruhr Valley child talks about how everything suddenly changes: Not only on a large scale - like the invention of the wheel or the internet - but also on a very personal level. Because at some point you're no longer in a club, but at IKEA. No longer in the classroom, but at the changing table.
With his typical mix of self-irony, honest despair and disarming humor, Bielendorfer talks about what it's like when your friends get divorced while you're still wondering whether you're an adult at all. When you're suddenly snubbed at a music festival and suddenly find the remains of your own hairstyle on your pillow in the morning when you're in your early 40s. "Everything used to be better" is what your grandparents used to say, and now you find yourself saying it.
