  • "Ludwig Unter's life held such promise. His parents were artists and, from an early age, his own musical genius had marked him out for a stellar career in the world's concert halls. In his mother's imagination, Ludwig is already on the way to surpassing her most ambitious dreams for him. But in reality, and for now, he's playing in local cocktail bars and the two of them are living alone in a storm-lashed clifftop cottage in East Anglia. As the forceful winter seas bash away at the coastline, and Ludwig plunks away at the piano, he begins to tell a woman his story: a story of beauty and decay, of a child's faith and parental betrayal, and of the importance, in the end, of self-sacrifice."
  • "Ludwig lebt allein mit seiner Mutter, bis die beiden bei einem heftigen Sturm ihr Haus verlieren. Von nun an ist er heimatlos, auf der Suche nach seinem eigenen Platz im Leben. Schockiert über seine Mutter, die nach Amerika reist, um ihr früheres Leben als Pornodarstellerin wieder aufzunehmen, folgt er ihr und verdient sein Geld in Los Angeles als Barpianist. In zwei Nächten erzählt Ludwig einer Zufallsbekanntschaft die Geschichte seines rastlosen Lebens. Tommy Wieringa schreibt den Roman einer Generation: eine verrückte, extreme Lebensgeschichte über den Aufbruch eines jungen Mannes ins Ungewisse. Der Autor Tommy Wieringa, geb. 1967, studierte Geschichte und Journalistik, war Redakteur einer Literaturzeitschrift und Musiker. Er schreibt Erzählungen, Reisereportagen, Hörspiele und Gedichte. Wieringa lebt auf einem Bauernhof in der Nähe von Amsterdam."

  • "When Ludwig Unger returned to his hometown after a decade, he arrived with a plastic bag filled with his mother's ashes and little else. He was there to make amends with his lonely past, to say goodbye to the familial ghosts that still haunted him. Raised in a cliff-top cottage on the coast of England, Ludwig's mother tried to create a normal life for her son after her husband one day left them to pursue his art. A mama's boy, Ludwig grew up in her shadow, developing an obsession with her and her sensual allure. But when he discovered the secret of her past as the world-famous porn star Eve 'LaSage' and her plans for a comeback, Ludwig's world spun out of control. He soon found himself homeless, shouldering the shame of his mother's career, and embarking on a journey that took him around the world."
