In her entertaining dialogues, Laura de Weck mixes the public and the intimate: gender quotas are discussed in the bedroom, banking confidentiality is broken in conversation, the people and the state go to couples therapy, and there is illegal immigration in the delivery room. The government and Google take effect on our private lives from above. But who gets to go on top in a democracy and who is down below? The author takes everyday material and makes it extraordinary, takes banalities and makes them highly political. A multi-voiced panorama of contemporary life, loves and politics in Switzerland and Europe. A cheerfully dark book for every day.
