At the kitchen table of an old farmhouse, two people meet who couldn't be more different. The narrator of this story leads a hectic life, which he perceives as an endless to-do list; Karl, on the other hand, sorts potatoes day by day and reflects. When Karl confronts his guest with the fact that he has about 25 summers left, they both begin a conversation about the big questions of life: Why do we spend so much time working instead of with the people and things that truly matter to us? Where do we find the courage to pursue our own dreams? And why does the right life often only begin when we realize that we have just one? Stephan Schäfer encourages us to seek answers to these questions within ourselves. "25 Last Summers" is a warm, profound narrative that resonates with our longing for a balanced life, taking us to Karl and his farm, to the lake, and to the potato field – a story about friendship, about too much and too little in life. And about the questions we all so eagerly want to find answers to. "What a wise, loving, comforting tale. It immediately caught me in that sometimes overwhelming feeling of missing precious moments – one feels gently embraced and is grateful for every line." Anne Fleck.
