LESUNG: Einatmen und ausrasten

Come join us for Tina Wolf’s reading on July 4, 2026, at your Hugendubel bookstore in Aurich!

The novel is about Maxi, whose life is completely falling apart: Her husband is cheating on her with the neighbor, her daughter only talks to her cell phone instead of her, and her own dreams have long been put on hold. When, of all places, she meets a young burglar while working as a plant caretaker for a wealthy Hamburg resident, an unusual deal emerges that’s meant to help both of them get their lives back on track.

About the book:
Life is like a movie. Only, unfortunately, the wrong one
Maxi is ready to snap: Her husband has packed his bags to have fun with the neighbor just one door down, her daughter Smilla would rather talk on her cell phone than with her, and she gave up her career years ago. When her friend needs someone to fill in for her while she’s on vacation, Maxi doesn’t hesitate for long and is soon biking through the city to tend to the extravagant indoor plants of wealthy Hamburg residents. During one of these visits, she encounters a burglar—but when she realizes who the young man is, Maxi proposes a deal to him: a way they can help each other get their lives back on track. A masterful novel about the everyday madness of midlife!
