Axel Hacke
The Best of My Love Life
“I read in the paper that 75% of women on their wedding day hope that their husband will change in the course of their marriage. But that 75% of men hope their wife does not change. I mentioned this to Bruno over a drink the other day. He shook his head despondently and mumbled ‘It says it all. It really says it all.’”
In his new book "Das Beste aus meinem Liebesleben" (The Best of My Love Life), Axel Hacke has collected tales from the morass we call living together: he goes to the very heart of such fundamentals as hanging curtains, squeezing toothpaste, going out, staying in, losing keys, shopping together. These are stories written by life itself, but captured as only Axel Hacke knows how and told here with his characteristic wit and warmth.

Axel Hacke
Small Guide to Child-Rearing
"All that Axel Hacke has done is record the daily havoc in which three quite normal and nice children propel their liberal and loving parents between fury, humiliation and a few moments of blissful pride. Front-line reporting from the playroom: almost on a par with the cult book The Little Prince." (Der Stern)

Little King December
"From delight to melancholy, this fairy tale for adults and children is full of profound meaning and light-hearted wit, full of charm and shrewd insight. Michael Sowa's enigmatic illustrations reflect the enchanting atmosphere of the work. Perhaps everyone could use a little king and a whole lot of dreams, all neatly packaged."
