Synopsis

Lower Franconia, mid-nineties: Samu is 16 when he has to leave his home village. A year earlier, he snooped around with maxi on carnival Tuesday. Or maxi with him? Anyway, the kiss was a scandal because Maxi was the son of Umraths French, the reactionary mayor. Now Maxi is dead. Jumped from the church tower. Samu is to blame. This is how at least the Umraths fringe and his right-wing radical son who swear revenge. So Samu goes to Frankfurt, where he should start an apprenticeship in September. But before that comes the summer. And the acquaintance with Lenni, with whom Samu combines a shared passion for the music of Ton Stein Shards. The two decide to visit Rio Reiser on his yard in Fresenhagen North Frisia - the beginning of a breakneck odyssey across Germany and a first love. When Micha Riegel writes, tragic and comedy lie close together. His debut novel throws the readers in the middle of the chaotic experience marathon of the protagonists, which incidentally becomes a mirror of the German post-revolution years. But whether Samu and Lenni escape ruthless dealers in Frankfurt, whether they trick the police in Weimar, go to a dubious porn producer in Berlin or receive the overdue ass kick in matters of love in the anti-nuclear hut village near Gorleben, they always keep their goal in mind: the clay stone shard community in Fig. Resenhagen. "Smoke Signs for Rio" is a novel like a Rio Reiser song: honest, disarming, stunning.
