Vier Geschichten, die uns lehren, aus der Vergangenheit über die Zukunft zu lernen und den Blick nach vorn zu öffnen.
Was wäre, wenn du in die Vergangenheit reisen könntest? "Bevor der Kaffee kalt wird" erzählt die Geschichte von einem magischen Sessel..
I found the first story a bit slow, it took a bit of time to explain the rules so I wasn’t too sure I’d like it. Everything changed (to me) from the second story onwards.
Molto commovente ma speravo meglio.
An easy to read and heartwarming story. It spoke to my sad soul and made me cry, so it must have been good.
This started slow for me, but I did eventually get into it. It could easily be staged as a play, and I think the time travel piece is somewhat interesting (though, the author does try to get around the inevitable plot holes of a time travel story with a series of unexplained "rules").
