Frank Goosen - „Lovely Rita“

In the organizer's words:

Frank Goosen

"Lovely Rita"

In "Lovely Rita", Frank Goosen tells his usual humorous and warm-hearted story about a dying biotope, the pub. And isn't it absurd that the head of foam on a pilsner is called a "flower", but the glass is called a "tulip?"
Lovely Rita - the new novel by Frank Goosen
In his new novel, Frank Goosen goes to the pub. More precisely, to the "Haus Himmelreich", the old corner pub where stories and destinies intersect: There's the bar cockpit with the captain, Langen and Willi Trommer, guys who have been sitting here since time immemorial. There's Gisela, the art tapper, Juniper Anni with God's toolbox, Faris, the comedian, Harry, the old social democrat, Carlo, who looks like Cat Stevens, and the Countess, who has seen the whole world but sometimes lives in an old song. But above all there is Rita Urbaniak, Lovely Rita, the landlady who actually wanted to do something completely different
but then life got in the way. And her sister Chris, born during the war, who was always traveling the world in search of what is so easily called happiness.
Between the gentlemen's table and the group of white men, they ground themselves before drinking, pay and be friendly, and turn two sixes into a one on the second throw, which is only possible on Maundy Thursday.
