A novel of two young friends growing up on divergent paths in the last days of Communist East Germany.What is it like to be young and broken in a country that is on the brink of collapse? The two central characters are inseparable since kindergarten, but they are forced to go their different ways to escape their difficult childhood: Ruth into music and the life of a professional musician; Viktor into violence and a neo-Nazi gang. This is what acclaimed poet and sound artist Ulrike Almut Sandig shows us in her debut novel, through the story of old friends Ruth and Viktor in the last days of Communist East Germany.
More than anything, it is about the stories we tell ourselves about who we are, and who we want to be. Bold, Monsters Like Us is a story of families, a story of abuse, a story about the search for redemption and the ways it takes shape over generations.
