Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

„I remember the days when I felt completely dull and isolated. Far too quickly, I had adapted myself and the people around me to a life, a way of interacting with each other that was designed to keep a distance.“

This book focuses on 15-year-old Frankie, who takes a look back at the last three years since the coronavirus emerged.
In a personal narrative, he describes the beginnings of the pandemic and its impact on his family and social environment from a first-person perspective.
During this development, Frankie‘s surfboard becomes an important object of reference for him in his inner confrontation with his expectations, hopes and disappointments. Different emotions, but above all the love of freedom, remain palpable, even if the world around him seems rigid and very stuck.
The family and the board provide Frankie with a secure base in this time of crisis. However, against the backdrop of the uncertain pandemic, this also raises questions about their fragility.
