Description

Actually fantastic, the idea: Three couples spend the summer holidays together in Tuscany. A bit of lying by the pool, a bit of dolce far niente, a bit of stuffing their bellies. Maybe also just reading a good crime novel again. The days in the south are also wonderful – if it weren't for the young partner of one, if it weren't for the ugliest (and loudest) baby in the world, if it weren't for the writer with thinning hair and equally sparse life energy. They disrupt the structure of those who already know each other from holidays in France. And then there are the stories of the past that threaten to catch up with them, as well as the conflicts within and between the couples. Soon everyone is not only stewing on the deck chair under the shining sun of Tuscany but also in their own juice. Until the rain comes. The rain that won't stop – and finally turns paradise into hell. "Max Küng has an infallible sense for human weaknesses, and he writes with biting wit." Augsburger Allgemeine "It reads wickedly, wittily, excitingly, it is brilliantly told." Elke Heidenreich on “Fremde Freunde” Max Küng, born in 1969 in Maisprach near Basel, has been a reporter and columnist for the Tages-Anzeiger magazine since 1999. Max Küng lives in Zurich.
