A tense and yet highly amusing novel about small people in a big world, and their common but catastrophic desire to believe in higher ideals.  -  Impressive award-winning debut novel
 
Four members of a commune stop eating because from now on they want to live on light and air. Each character has its own reasons for this extreme decision, which ends up costing the protagonist, Elisabeth, her life. And each of the 25 chapters opens with the words ‘We are…’ and is told by a different narrator: from Elisabeth’s parents and siblings, the neighbors and her sister’s lawyer to the night, the daily bread, the scent of an orange, dementia, doubt, and Elisabeth’s own body. Each narrator has a unique and distinct voice and makes an essential contribution to the novel’s complex tapestry.

The mystic, occult side of the Third Reich.
 
The medieval castle Wewelsburg, situated in Germany’s heartland, was chosen by Himmler as a quasi-religious retreat where the esoteric Germanic elements of Nazism could be cultivated. Although little became of Himmler’s plans in the end, the post-war media—from films to the well-known Wolfenstein games—often linked the castle to the occult and supernatural phenomena, which were inextricably associated with the Third Reich.
 
A closer look at the background, mysteries, and idiosyncrasies of Wewelsburg Castle.
Van Roekel delves into the mysticism embraced by Himmler’s SS.

All expectations of the reader again and again are not met.
