Summer Lies
About This Novel
"Summer Lies" is a collection of short stories by Bernhard Schlink, an important writer, novelist and best-selling author in the German contemporary literary world. It contains seven short stories. The author wrote seven sad stories around the key word "lie": a man hesitated to return to a normal life after experiencing a lightning love affair he met on vacation; a woman suddenly discovered that the meaning of life she had believed in for many years no longer existed and began to look for students. People who have loved in time try to undo their past decisions; a son embarks on a journey with his father in order to truly understand him; an old man suffering from an incurable disease arranges a summer vacation with his family to say his final farewell to life; a man listens to the passenger next to him on the plane confessing his legendary experience, but suspects that what he is facing is a scam... Family, friendship or love are entangled in daily life, and life is always wandering between doubt and belief.
