Reading

An author who tends to his phobias more than fight them with a mix of alcohol, cocaine and sedatives. Jonas, an old friend of Glavinic readers, who journeys to the South Pole with his big love Marie. And a 13-year-old who escapes his reality by intensely studying chess matches. Not to forget: a chainsaw murder, the Hell’s Angels and two attorneys whose quirks are stranger than their clients’. On this odd trip between Vienna, the Steiermark, Tokyo and the South Pole, they all share one question: who do I want to be?
