Panenka: Roman - Ein feinfühliger, tröstender Roman vom Autor von „Leonard und Paul“

The setting feels so authentic and cozy, making the characters' lives resonate deeply. I'm curious if the Irish backdrop was a personal passion or a deliberate choice to evoke a certain atmosphere.

The book handled themes of identity and loneliness with a gentle touch, but I wondered if the tone was chosen to balance emotional depth with levity. What did others think about this approach?

Some chapters took their time exploring characters' inner thoughts, which suited the story, but I wonder if that was a conscious decision to create a reflective mood or just natural storytelling.
