Add to basketIn Aloha onderzoekt Machteld Siegmann de lichte en de donkere kant van de menselijke zoektocht naar verbinding. Een enkele ontmoeting kan je leven op z’n kop zetten. Vooral de onverwachte ontmoetingen, die anders lopen dan je denkt. Veel van de verhalen in Aloha gaan over zulke ontmoetingen-op-het-tweede-gezicht: een oude pontwachter wacht op zijn laatste passagier om hem de liefde te verklaren, een kunstenares vergeet haar vernissage omdat ze door iets groters in beslag wordt genomen, een slang leidt een dubbelleven en een gescheiden vader komt zichzelf tegen op kampeervakantie met zijn dochters. Gelukkig maar: de wereld is gevaarlijker maar ook magischer dan gedacht. Aloha is het nieuwe boek van Machteld Siegmann, auteur van De kaalvreter en Wachter op de morgen.
‘Met een krachtige vertelstem en de juiste dosis humor laat Machteld Siegmann in deze verhalen de ongerijmdheid van het leven zien.’ – Gerda Blees
‘Verhalen schrijven is een kunst, in een paar zinnen moet de situatie duidelijk zijn en moeten de personages een karakter hebben. Dat lukt Machteld Siegmann uitstekend, steeds creëert ze een heel ander maar herkenbaar universum, dat de lezer ook nog eens fijn laat nadenken over het gedrag van de mensen om ons heen en van onszelf.’ - TZUM
Machteld Siegmann is neerlandica en schrijver. Ze debuteerde in 2019 met haar roman De kaalvreter, waarvoor ze De Bronzen Uil won. In 2024 verscheen Aloha, die lovend ontvangen werd. Over Aloha 'Moderne sprookjes die het hart raken.' - Nederlands Dagblad
