Summary:
"Bernhard is 70, divorced, childless, and ever since he retired, he’s felt like there is something missing from his life. A new relationship? A hobby? Maybe volunteering? Nothing seems to fit together. But then he receives an invitation to Salerno – that place on the Italian coast where he’d spend a few months all those decades ago, and which at the time had seemed to promise a different life. Waiting for him there is Alfredo, his former landlord and now the owner of a beachside bar. And the carousel that Alfredo salvaged from the junkyard that he always wanted to get up and running. With the help of Arianna, an engineer who seems to have been more than just a friend to Bernhard, and whom he hopes to finally see again. And so he sets off on a journey back to that place and its unanswered questions. In The Carousel, Hans-Ulrich Treichel tells a story of a reconnection, but also of a farewell. And he tells it in his own, inimitable way – melancholic, cheerful, quiet, sometimes shot through with dreams"-- Provided by publisher.
