like sunshine in winter: a story about saying goodbye and the unfathomable joy of being alive

“This book is like sunshine in winter, surprising and comforting. I cried and laughed, and afterwards, I wanted to tell everyone I love that I love them. Especially those I almost never tell.” – Caroline Wahl

Sebastian Becker’s father dies when he is twenty-eight. This loss is the seismic shock of his life. Afterwards: silence. A shock-induced void. Since then, many things have been difficult for him, including talking about it. Sebastian searches for words and finds memories instead. It is these memories of bright days and dark ones that restore his voice; and as Sebastian begins to tell his story – of buckets filled with sunflowers, colorful socks, green bananas, paywalls blocking obituaries, of loving and missing – his words are clear and radiant. They all say the same thing: Hi Dad, I miss you.

“Und es wird trotzdem wieder Sommer werden” (And Summer Will Come Again) is a story about saying goodbye. About time standing still in moments of profound shock. About time that cannot be reclaimed. About compassion. About softness. About the unfathomable joy of being alive. About waiting for summer, and the certainty that summer will come.
