The English Drama Club of the University of Freiburg. Since my former roomie was quite involved, so became I and since I lacked the self-confidence to try out on stage, I took over house management and offered to write texts for the program notes. These are my two contributions. Enjoy!

#01
Seit nunmehr vier Jahren nehme ich mir vor, dieses Buch zu schreiben. Vermutlich werden bis zur Fertigstellung noch viele weitere vergehen, aber es schadet nichts, den Beginn des eigentlichen Schreibprozesses an dieser Stelle festzuhalten. Obwohl, der “eigentliche Schreibprozess” ist an und für sich ein irreführender Begriff. Das eigentliche Schreiben meint vermutlich die Aneinanderreihung von Buchstaben,…
Are they planning a murder?
…she asked herself as the crows gathered on the roof. It was a foggy November day and our protagonist (me) wasn’t able to do anything but sit and puzzle and listen to podcasts. That day was years ago but never really ended. Before that, or inbetween while waiting for new episodes to drop, it was…
Julia had settled down…
…on her side and was already on the point of falling asleep. Was she tired? Probably. Was that why? Nope. It was because she made the mistake of reading a book that sounded a m a z i n g in theory – yet was a complete fail in practice. Sandra Newman’s JULIA, based on…
A little bird told me
…that tattoos aren’t cheep. Sometimes it feels like I’m carrying a bird, ehm, a burden of course – clearly a Freudian slip because as you might have guessed from the title, bird is the word and isn’t the English language so fascinating considering these two words rhyme? #englishpronounciation I take it you already know the…

Bad Blood / Böses Blut
Hand’s up one of the best Scandinavian crime novels I read in a long time. And I’m not saying this because of the cover. Okay, maybe, because I love puns. I am an avid reader of Henning Mankell and his Wallander novels, of Jo Nesbø‘s Harry Hole and of course I’ve read Miss Smilla’s Feeling…

In der Weihnachtsbäckerei
Meine diesjährigen Plätzchenempfehlungen rechtzeitig zum Fest! Meine Motivation in der diesjährigen Vorweihnachtszeit ist gleich null. 2019 hatte ich mehr christmas spirit und da hatte mich meine Mutter ausgeladen. Soviel zu meiner aktuellen Gemütsverfassung. Aber wie sagte Pablo Tusset so schön? „Der Schein muss gewahrt werden, er ist das einzige, was wir haben.“ In diesem Sinne…
