Katastrophen: Neue Novellen

A series of novellas presents episodes of sudden misfortune and the small dramas that follow, tracing how accidents, illness, contested inheritances, cross-cultural encounters, and the approach of death reshape ordinary lives. Settings shift from provincial coasts to city salons, with close attention to sensory detail, social tensions, and characters’ interior responses. Narrative focus alternates between outward events—train wrecks, storms, legal disputes—and subtle emotional consequences, exploring resignation, stubborn will, regret, and the fragile ties that bind families and communities.
