"How does an upright book man become a reactionary - or a revolutionary? A stirring story about all of us. Norbert Paulini is a highly respected Dresden antiquarian, where book lovers will find treasures and like-minded people. He went through ups and downs for over forty years. Even when times change, the customers are missing and the Internet is competing with him, he tries to maintain his position. But suddenly a quick-tempered, irreconcilable person stands before us who is accused of being involved in xenophobic riots."--Translation of synopsis on back cover.
