“You can't hold onto love. Just wait until it comes back.” Sando loves the Fox. The Fox, among all people. This young man with the unsettling smile who he met at a demo and who he cannot really get a hold of. But Sando has learned that you can't hold onto love, you have to wait until it comes back. He has learned that from his mother, who decided twenty years ago to leave her social background and to pursue her own goals, to not always be there for others: “The possibility of disappearance is always there. Because we are not just the ones the others want us to be”, she said. And now his sister Mili calls Sando because their mother has left their father – again. Without leaving a note. Sando agrees to embark with Mimi on the search, hoping to escape his lovesickness on the way. Lena Müller‘s first novel is about love and freedom, obligations and longing – and about what is left over.
