From the author of What Concerns Us, comes an exploration of non-monogamous relationships.

What does freedom mean? And responsibility? What shapes us? In her new novel, Laura Vogt delves deeply into the emotional lives of her characters, showing us their strengths and weaknesses, their disappointments and hopes. This is a vibrant,
life-affirming novel that vividly illustrates how individualism, motherhood, and selfdetermination must be continually negotiated.

Laura Vogt (Teufen, 1989) studied cultural studies and literary writing. Her debut novel, So einfach war es also zu gehen (2016) featured at the Solothurn Literature Days and PROSOMOVA. In 2022, we published her second novel, Was uns betrifft (What Concerns Us). In addition to prose, she also writes poetry, plays, and journalistic texts. She lives with her family in eastern Switzerland.
