“Sweet Life” is a collection of stories united by mood and plot spirals. In “Twenty-Five Days” Luka sits in a barber’s chair in the émigré district of Berlin. They speak different languages, and the only way to understand each other is through gestures and touches. Their inner language follows them until the twenty-fifth day. In the “Cairo Express”, David travels by transcontinental train and carries a secret cargo to the final station. However, the comfortable course of this journey is under threat. In the “Write-off” the girl is given an urgent task: “After all, who else could be entrusted with this case” she thinks after receiving the order. To fulfil it, she goes to meet with Terracotta.

Thirteen stories that nurture inner dramas, experiences, passion, rage, adoration.

This book is full of mystery and playfulness, anxiety, but also airy lightness. “Sweet Life” invites you to play, to travel by plane and train, walk through rooms and houses, wonder around cities and continents. It calls for a journey through the boundless, vast space of human nature.
