Heinrich del Core - Hooray, My Wife Is Becoming a Grandmother

Heinrich del Core: Hooray, My Wife Is Becoming a Grandmother!

Grandchildren are like a flood - everything gets a bit submerged. Good thing Heinrich del Core is so solidly grounded! If only because of the privilege of dual birth - as a German and equally as an Italian. Beyond that, he is a stable, perceptive observer, indeed an analyst, no, even: a therapist of everyday life. A healer! Del Core knows the subtleties and pitfalls of ordinary existence, and in a relaxed, playful tone he describes and masters all the tricks that make life seem arduous. Or incomprehensible. Or outrageous! Because in the del Core universe, none of this exists - here clear insights prevail and everyone knows which way to go. Especially when his wife thinks differently! Which brings us back to the grandchild and its profound meaning for the life of - yes, from now on you have to say: the grandfather. Good thing this "half-Italian German" (del Core about del Core) already knows his way around mopeds, baby carriages, and thermomixes, including their purchase prices. The usual daily madness - now with a grandchild! What happens to self-confidence? Does one feel no longer young enough? Keep your head up: "My wife is becoming a grandmother, but I'm staying the same."
