»Mein Vater war Gärtner. Jetzt ist er ein Garten.« In seinem bisher persönlichsten Roman lässt Georgi Gospodinov das Leben seines Vaters in einer bewegenden Hommage auferstehen. Mit Witz und Wärme feiert er den leidenschaftlichen Gärtner, der bis zum Schluss nicht vom Umgraben, Säen und Jäten abzubringen ist – und vom Geschichtenerzählen.
