A family experiences a role reversal: The father, twice widowed, has become a child again. He needs care and will have to leave home because he forgets what just happened. He repeatedly recounts his love stories, and sometimes he fantasizes. This tender novel about the almost imperceptible progression of dementia is deeply touching and relatable. Winner of the Bavarian Book Prize 2019. Nominated for the Wilhelm Raabe Literature Prize 2019.
