In Interviews, Podcasts und auch privat wird Anna Mendel immer wieder gefragt: Wie ist das so mit zwei behinderten Kindern? Wie ist euer Alltag? Wie war das mit den Diagnosen? Wie schafft ihr das alles? Und ganz manchmal wird sie auch gefragt, wie es ihr denn eigentlich gehe. Ihre Antworten sind so umfangreich, dass sie oft nicht in ein paar Sätze passen.

Si potrebbe dire che dentro un libro come questo, in cui la forma di un romanzo si scompone e si frammenta, i fantasmi della vita si muovono con più naturalezza, si permettono pause, giocano con la nostalgia, si interrogano sul tempo, e sulle intermittenze del presente.
