Denis Scheck wrote about Timon Karl Kaleyta's debut novel "The Story of a Simple Man": "A brilliantly written, entertaining and intelligent German novel - you don't get that every day." Kaleyta also manages to surprise in his latest book. Heilung tells the story of a man who is at the end of his tether. He fears losing everything. A mysterious luxury resort in the snowy silence of the Dolomites promises him a cure. But the unusual treatment methods of the doctor in charge bring out the unexpected in him. Frightened and at the same time full of hope, the man flees to his best friend from childhood. He has no idea how far he will have to go to finally be cured of everything.
Timon Karl Kaleyta talks to presenter, film critic and author Wolfgang M. Schmitt about his writing, about dreams and reality and about the exhausting search for himself.
