When young people get married – and soon divorce once more: Esther Schüttpelz and Monica Heisey take on a painful subject in a sometimes amusing way.
What an irony of fate! Contrary to the zeitgeist, namely dating apps and frequently changing relationships, two young couples dare to start their adult life in a bourgeois manner, to say yes to each other in front of witnesses, i.e. to close the “bond for life” – and then that’s it following a short time together once more. Conclusion: divorce. This is also completely contrary to the languorous love films, in which the story still heads towards that unavoidable, dramaturgically absolutely necessary conclusion like in fairy tales: the happy ending, sealed with marriage. But what actually happens following the wedding, in life, in everyday life? Viewers rarely find out.
Readers, on the other hand, fare differently: two novels are currently available in which the almost 30-year-old protagonists are regarding to divorce. In “Ohne mich” it is the German Esther Schüttpelz and in “Einfach super” the Canadian Monica Heisey who describe the time between separation and divorce.
