About this title

Synopsis

"The woodworm has been ticking in the beams for a long time." Probably no one who has read this story will so quickly forget the panopticum of originals, the quartet of mind-blowing loser types who formed the workforce of Udo Posbich's private sentence and printing business in East Berlin in the late seventies: the eternally love-sick Püppi, who as leftleft handed Setzerin drives completely beside the track and her longing for happiness finally projected onto a potted plant, a schizophrenic printer with abundant gloomy past whose conversation partners are devices and machines, or a colleague in whose loins once his parasitic twin brother stuck...

In a virtuoso language and with a unique humor through which she paroli despair in the world, Katja Lange-Müller tells a story of the end - of the end of a profession and technology, of the end of writing and a social class. And finally, it will be the story of a fabulous subversive action that must not be betrayed here...
