Einer der beliebtesten Alleinunterhalter auf den deutschsprachigen LesebuhnenAm besten ware ja, man konnte ein Leben probeweise erfahren, bevor man es wirklich lebt.Was ware, wenn man nicht diese eine Entscheidung getroffen hatte, sondern jene andere? Was ware, hatte man der Erwartung getrotzt?Und dann ist da trotzdem die Furcht, feige gewesen zu sein, zu lange gezogert und etwas verpasst zu haben, ein besseres Ich, ein gro eres Gluck, die lustigeren Haustiere und Partner.Sasa Stanisic fuhrt uns an Orte, an denen das auf einmal moglich ist: den schwierigeren Weg zu gehen, eine unubliche Wahl zu treffen oder die eine gute Luge auszusprechen.So wie die Reinigungskraft, die beschlie t, mit einer Burste aus Ziegenhaar in der Hand, endlich auch das Leben in die eigenen Hande zu nehmen.

Ruth-Maria Thomas erzahlt in ihrem gefeierten Debutroman, nominiert fur den Deutschen Buchpreis 2024, die Geschichte von Jella und Yannick. Es ist eine Geschichte vom Aufwachsen in der ostdeutschen Provinz und der ersten groen Liebe, deren anfangliche Leichtigkeit sich in ihr Gegenteil verkehrt und eine toxische, gewaltvolle Dynamik entwickelt.'Ein Muss fur uns und wirklich jeden Mann, der ansatzweise verstehen mochte, wie das Aufwachsen als Frau im Patriarchat uns kaputtmachen kann.' - Louisa DellertMit stilistischer Brillanz und seltener Drastik legt "Die schonste Version" die Abgrunde einer Beziehung und die gesellschaftlichen Strukturen dahinter frei. Es ist die funkelnde und zugleich erschutternde Geschichte eines Erwachens, eine groe Introspektion und eine Anklage - fesselnd, tiefgrundig und von unerhorter Aktualitat.
