During these Summers
For readers of Hans-Ulrich Treichel, “The Lost One” and Monika Helfers “Vati”.
Teresa's recollection of her childhood and youth is a subtle approach, her view into the past has become cautious: First uncertain attempts on the bicycle at her father's side, long vacations at the pool with her brother, planting flower boxes with her mother under the hot summer sun.
These unreliable moments of lightheartedness are often clouded by moments of disruption, by feelings of helplessness and fear. There is something unspoken smoldering in this family. Everyone seems powerless to the whims of the father; situations begin to derail dangerously. Unobtrusive and at the same time captivating, Janina Hecht tells of beautiful and terrible days, of escape and liberation, and of the attempt to confront one's own life in remembering. "In These Summers" is the moving story of a family on the constantly endangered search for at least quiet happiness.
