Between Farewell and Departure Often, a single irritating glance is enough to disrupt the seemingly harmonious fabric of a fresh love, a neighborly acquaintance, or a carefree vacation.

With an unerring sense for tragicomic situations, Ingo Schulze explores the essence of love, the struggle for dignity in saying goodbye, and the gift of joyful epiphanies in the midst of everyday life.
