Elli Kolb: 9 Grad
In the organizer's words:
A novel about winter swimming, the power of the cold and new beginnings in difficult times
About the power of the cold, finding oneself again, real and breakable boundaries in life and friendships that enrich
The water is nine degrees when Josie ventures into the river for the first time to fulfill a wish for her seriously ill friend Rena. Perhaps the pain of the cold numbs the fear of losing her. But what Josie then experiences is beyond anything she could have hoped for. While ice bathing, she feels herself for the first time and experiences her body, with which she has always struggled, in a completely new way. And something else is new: her relationship with Lee, whom she met on Tinder. But Lee is battling his own demons and is depressed. What does this mean for their love - and what do borderline experiences do to you? Elli Kolb tells the story in her moving novel.
Elli Kolb, born in 1986, studied General and Comparative Literature and Nordic Philology in Munich and Gothenburg. She now lives in Fürth, not far from a river. When she can't be found there, on the riverbank, she blogs on understandingly.de about mind-body connections and mental health, especially about the potential of coldness for depression.
