Known for its philosophical programme, the publishing house "der blaue reiter" continues its existential examination of the diagnosis of ovarian cancer and the history of relationships. It is a gripping story told from the point of view of those affected, with Hölderlin and Meister Eckhart in the background.

Who accompanies whom in a dying process that is considered chronic? How can years of letting go be organised? The two-volume work is a philosophical reflection and offers a contemporary approach to the great mystic of the Middle Ages.

Comments on the book:

Written from a heart that has experienced turbulent and precious times caring for a loved one with cancer, the novel shows the important closeness between doctor, patient and relatives." (Professor J. A. Lederman, Director of the UCL Cancer Institute, London).

'Nicht alle Tage' is a great work about the masked facets of a relationship with oneself and with people who are important to one." (Professor Jalid Sehouli, Director of the Department of Gynaecology and Oncological Surgery, Charité, Berlin).
