We Would Have Told Each Other Everything

In a series of three interconnected stories, Judith Hermann weaves together themes of psychology and friendship, unconventional childhoods, summers on the North German seashore and the act of writing itself. This is narrative auto-fiction that asks when life becomes fiction, how dependable memory can be, and how closely one's dreams can come to reality.

Judith Hermann's clear, poetic prose captures with sensitivity the intimate centres of life.
