What the soul withstands

Meer over het boek

Gilbert is from Düsseldorf, which is only half true, yet no one knows. He writes... somehow, something. He works... not properly(so it's said), has affairs... gifted by fate, as if it wanted to waste itself on him, so it seems. Ina and Steffi, two best friends, both from Berlin, both in their mid/late twenties, are about to move on, for a last journey around the world, want that before they have to pass the 30-threshold. A pre-century hotel, offered like a hostel, in a town located off the main tourist route, is the place where they meet, find, and lose each other again. Female longings, desires, those who usually needs to be hidden, needs to be repressed..., tied up to, let the two women do something, decide something.
