Katja Lewina "Wir können doch Freunde bleiben"

In the organizer's words:

how two people find each other is often easily told. but how do they part? 'we can still be friends' brings together stories about one of the most painful experiences of our lives: the end of a love affair.
there's annette, who found out that her boyfriend was an exhibitionist known to the police. rayk, who after thirty years in a relationship now has to learn to cope with being alone. or maximilian, who married his girlfriend when their relationship was actually already at an end.
the authentic anecdotes told here by katja lewina read like a rollercoaster ride of emotions. because break-ups are naturally a wild thing. fortunately, however, we can learn from the mistakes of others: about our own recklessness, our behavior patterns or how not to run into the open knife. because if there is one thing that unites all these stories, then it is probably this: in the end, you are always glad when it's over, which shouldn't last.
katja lewina's break-up stories are lively, funny and yet profound. empathetically and intelligently, she explores how it works: breaking up well.
