Description
About the Book Rensing junior is passionate about the world of meat and sausage products; as a child, he already helps his father in the butcher shop. He wants to make everything more modern and efficient. Even more important to him is the quality of the meat; only the very best is good enough for his customers. But he lacks any sense for exactly these customers. Stubbornly, he tries to realize his ideals, but as more and more villagers bypass his shop to go to the supermarket, his life increasingly becomes a struggle of a lonely butcher against the rest of the world. "Ochsenkopf" is a tragicomic novel about a passionate person who fails himself and the changes around him. And Manik Sarkar captivates readers with his strikingly entertaining style. About the Author Manik Sarkar, born in 1973 in Groningen, translates literature from French and English and works as a lecturer at the Translator School in Amsterdam. Ochsenkopf is his first novel.
