Die Wunderübung

By Daniel Glattauer.

Joana and Valentin are an ordinary couple with ordinary marital problems - so they go to see an ordinary therapist. His efforts to reconcile them, however, come to nothing: it's not just the marriage that's in crisis, the therapist himself seems to be carrying his own baggage. When everything falls apart at once, maybe only a miracle can help.

Daniel Glattauer was nominated for the German Book Prize in 2006 for his novel "Gut gegen Nordwind".
