- Summary:
- Only the others are always old, one thinks, until one experiences how one's own parents, apparently forever young and beautiful, become frail. And suddenly the question arises, how one became who one is. Anuschka Roshani goes back in the history of her parents, - and tries to reconstruct what she knows: He came to Freiburg from Tehran in 1955 and became a passionate surgeon, womanizer, and motorist. Her mother, a fashion model, was blessed not only with beauty, but also with a big heart. They are the dazzling protagonists of this family history, which is not only a journey back in time to their own past, but also illuminates the presence of a middle-aged woman. The book unfolds a small moral portrait of West Germany in the sixties and seventies.
