Summary:
"An Deck eines Schiffes auf dem Weg von New York nach Europa sitzt Gustav Mahler. Er ist berühmt, der größte Musiker der Welt, doch sein Körper schmerzt, hat immer schon geschmerzt. Während ihn der Schiffsjunge sanft, aber resolut umsorgt, denkt er zurück an die letzten Jahre, die Sommer in den Bergen, den Tod seiner Tochter Maria, die er manchmal noch zu sehen meint. An Anna, die andere Tochter, die gerade unten beim Frühstück sitzt, und an Alma, die Liebe seines Lebens, die ihn verrückt macht und die er längst verloren hat. Es ist seine letzte Reise." -- flap of the dust jacket
"Gustav Mahler sits on the deck of a ship on the way from New York to Europe. He is famous, the greatest musician in the world, but his body hurts, has always hurt. While the cabin boy cared for him gently but resolutely, he thought back to the last few years, the summers in the mountains, the death of his daughter Maria, who he sometimes thought he could still see. To Anna, the other daughter who is sitting downstairs at breakfast, and to Alma, the love of his life that drives him crazy and that he has long since lost. It's his last trip." -- Cataloger's translation of the German synopsis
