Synopsis

First sentences, last words and all the stories in between

The books of the writer Dora Frenhofer have not been read for a long time. Nevertheless, at seventy-three, she decides to write a very last novel. As her social isolation in London increases, she travels all over the globe in her imagination and slips into the minds of the lost brother, estranged daughter, former lover and other people who have crossed her life path. Like a modern Scheherazade, Dora weaves the different individual fates into a great contemporary panorama - and an unusual self-portrait. Ironically as warm-hearted, Tom Rachman introduces us to the meaning and power of narrative art in ›Die Hochstapler‹.
