With sharp malice and biting sarcasm, Philipp Tingler describes and comments in his debut work on a life between studies and an assistant job at the university's economics institute, shopping at Pick Pay, parties, television and coffee-drinking at Sprüngli, the relationship with Rich and the friendship with Franziska, Oliver, Ursula and Ralph. Sometimes dandyishly misanthropic, occasionally hypochondriacally maudlin, but often merely cheerful and astonishingly serene, in his writing he laments and mocks the pain that the abysmally banal dramas of daily life hold in store for him.
