Trade Review
Praise for Kettenbach: Reading Kettenbach means taking a look into the individual's soul laid bare, into its abyss and its hopeless entanglements. Those who read his books will gain a better understanding of why human beings do the things they do, even the most absurd and horrendous things. The result is stories told along the razor-sharp edge of reality.A" Die Zeit Kettenbach provides answers that are either darkly humorous or melancholically tragic, depending on how black the reader's heart proves to be.A" Booklist
