Growing up in the heart of music - and the story of a friendship whose intimacy is destructive. With "Waltz for Nobody", Sophie Hunger presents an abysmal and poetic, tragicomic and sophisticated coming-of-age novel. Enjoy or dread a musical evening that relentlessly and tenderly tells of the elemental nature of music.
Sophie Hunger's debut novel "Walzer für Niemand" will be published by Kiepenheuer & Witsch on 13.03.25.
