Jan Weiler: The Birdhouse
with Jan Weiler
In his latest novel Das Vogelhaus [“The Birdhouse”], bestselling author Jan Weiler (“The Awning Man”, “Maria, He Doesn’t Like the Taste”, “Teens: A Survival Handbook for Parents” and more) presents a clever, humorous and moving tale of an involuntary homecoming. What happens to us when we return to the places that are so closely interwoven with our own story? This is the question confronting protagonist Leonard Beck. When he learns that his mother wants to sell his childhood home, he travels back to his hometown with mixed feelings. He meets people from his past who were once important to him. Again and again, he finds himself standing in front of the unassuming house, which magically draws him even though it evokes no good memories. And the house is still surrounded by a secret that Leonard was unable to solve in the past. But now he wants to figure it out! He is finally ready to face not only his deepest fears but also his great love.
