When Edgar Fett follows his curious cat through a mysterious door, he has no idea that it will lead him into the greatest adventure of his graying years. Behind the door lies the Theaterhafen: a place full of magic, theatrical atmosphere, and stage flair – created to enchant people in fantastic ways. But not everything is as it should be: The Theaterhafen is sinking, the performances are stuck, and artists and audiences are in great distress. Can Edgar, armed only with a bathrobe and slippers, save the theater?
"The Sunken Theater is a story I would love to read myself. But above all, it's a story in which I try to capture the magic of theater. If the theater doors ever have to remain closed again, or if the day comes when I can no longer be on stage myself, then I would like to be able to hand you this book and say: That's how it was back then. That's how it was, among magicians and jugglers, surrounded by musicians and dancers, on the road with actors and technicians. Perhaps you'll then reply: That's how it's supposed to be? But that's completely unrealistic! And you'd probably be right. But just close one eye: Then you won't miss the magic so easily. And you know what? The magic – it's really there."
Timon Krause, mentalist
A magical realism novel for anyone who wants to dream themselves into the fantastic world of theater.
