TO THE WANDERERS…
“I have to do something meaningful with my life. I fear to face death and realise that my existence was for nothing, but first I need to be free. Goodbye London, goodbye big job, goodbye my love.”
It’s been decided, Luca has to kill his ego. He is a young advertising executive who has everything that someone is supposed to want nowadays; the girl, the status, and a wealthy life in London, but he hates himself for having become a slut of capitalism. Panic attacks and suicidal thoughts push him to look for a change, leaving his shallow life behind to embark on a journey into the unknown. It begins with a visit to his old-time friend Jacques, an artist who lives a worry-free, weed-fuelled life in Berlin. Maybe he has some answers.
If you’ve ever dreamt about quitting everything to pursue your passion, to try to change the world for the better, to find your true love, or just to wander around and be free, then this book is for you.
