You once asked me if I am not aware of your love for me. The so praised motherly love, the so adherent love you harbor for your own mother, my Nano Jan. As usual I did not know how to answer that question, partly because I know that as an obligation, as a Pflicht, you do love me but also because you never let me feel loved by you. In Furcht, I would be spoiled by it. But I am starved. But perhaps I starved myself of it in my own mind thinking I don not deserve your motherly love. Thinking one should not be obliged to love anyone, even their own child. In truth I can never completely answer that question as the reasons harbor many detailed reasons.

Letters to you: Eine traurige Ode an die Freundschaft. In diesem bewegenden Buch verbindet zwei enge Freunde ein tiefer, aber einseitiger Briefaustausch . In dem Brief kommen die tiefsten Gedanken, Ängste und Sehnsüchte zweier Seelen an die Oberfläche. Von inneren Dämonen geplagt, suchen die Charaktere in Briefen nach Trost, Verständnis und Hoffnung. Während sie durch ihre innere Dunkelheit navigieren, entwirren sie nach und nach die Strukturen ihrer zerrissenen Leben.

My dearest Mr. Darcy, allow me to make a sassy prediction: one day, you will read my name on this book cover, and by the time you realize it, you will be reading this letter. Awareness will strike you like lightning; you will drop your act and feel in your bones that you are the one I wrote it to. Pride, then, will take your ego to the highest heights as you remember our time together, but the prejudice resulting from the same period will be the one causing your fingers to tremble and your breath to falter; you will be taking the book home. What's more, I venture to say that, somehow, no matter where I might be, I will know it too. It's an inexplicable feeling, weird but wagerable. In the meantime, I leave you with a more daring question than the single "why?" messing with your head as soon as you started reading me: love rules the world, but as innocent and ardently as it may be, can it conquer it all? Yours truly, the author
