The white Hirschkuh was probably to blame – Diepresse.com

Martina Behm, who has so far been known as a knitting master and has already published various knitting instructions, has now written a novel. « Out here » is a classic village novel that portrays country life from the perspective of various protagonists. In the small Holstein town of Fehrdorf, the clocks go a little slower than in the city, which does not mean that it is only tranquil. The local poultry operation, for example, does not necessarily make an appetite for Backthendl, and the hunter hangs, like the other established, the old superstition that you do not survive the next year if you have to kill a white deer cow because it ran into your car. This happens, of all things, Ingo, who moved here with his wife and two children from the city. Lara absolutely wanted it, not so urgent – now he is consecrated in the eyes of the villages. The initial family idyll is crumbling quickly, Lara, for example, would not have imagined that as a self -employed graphic artist, she was pushed so quickly into professional offside. It can no longer react as flexibly to orders as before, and then you are quickly away from the window. Ingo’s daily commuting to Hamburg eats time and nerves. A clever novel with wink and conciliatory moments in which clichés and reality are close together.
