Kompletný popis

He has no job, a wife he never really wanted, and a regular table at the Grande Bretagne café. From there, he watches: a womaniser who blames the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan for his marital failures; Van Gogh, the brilliant engineer with a fondness for brothels and Roman delusions; Marco Polo, who has never left the city but travels very far in his head.

A Single Espresso, Please is a wry, melancholy portrait of men adrift, told with the lightness of someone who has long since stopped expecting things to improve. It is episodic, digressive, and quietly funny ; a novel that treats unemployment, failed love, and the passage of time not as subjects for lamentation but as the ordinary furniture of a life.

Andreas Michael writes not to console but to observe, and there is real honesty in that.
