Buried deep below the everyday life of our society lives an underground world of nightmares-of violence and murder no one dares speak about. Contracts and laws weave the web of our culture together. Our Masters walk amongst us. They can be our friends, or the ones to make us disappear forever. Where I once had found peace within my existence, it all ended with the death of my cruel, yet caring owner. My world shattered and I was taken back to the one place I had hoped to never see again-the cells of Whitlock-a subterranean fortress for slaves who await their new placement. Now I have no rights. I have no say. My feelings and wellbeing are meaningless. Escape is impossible, but I have nothing left to lose.To stand any chance of survival, I must give my life as collateral to the highest bidder: Soul for Sale.slave 24690

Am Küchentisch eines alten Bauernhauses treffen zwei Menschen aufeinander, die unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten. Der Erzähler dieser Geschichte führt ein gehetztes Leben, das er als endlose To-do-Liste empfindet; Karl hingegen sortiert Tag für Tag Kartoffeln - und denkt nach. Als Karl seinen Gast mit der Tatsache konfrontiert, dass ihm noch ungefähr 25 Sommer bleiben, beginnen beide ein Gespräch über die großen Fragen des Lebens: Warum verbringen wir so viel Zeit mit unserer Arbeit anstatt mit den Menschen und Dingen, die uns wirklich wichtig sind? Woher nehmen wir den Mut, unsere eigenen Träume zu verwirklichen? Und warum beginnt das richtige Leben oft erst, wenn wir erkennen, dass wir nur eines haben?Stephan Schäfer bringt uns dazu, Antworten auf diese Fragen in uns selbst zu suchen. 25 letzte Sommer ist eine warme, tiefe Erzählung, die uns in unserer Sehnsucht nach einem Leben in Gleichgewicht abholt, uns mitnimmt zu Karl und seinem Hof, zum See und auf den Kartoffelacker - zu einer Geschichte über Freundschaft, über das Zu-viel und Zu-wenig im Leben.

Una obra inabarcable, enormemente influyente y también polémica en no pocos aspectos.Publicado originalmente en la BCG con el número 117, este volumen presenta la traducción República, realizada por Conrado Eggers Lan (Universidad de Buenos Aires).
