Hauptsache nichts mit Menschen by Paul Bokowski DE
Description:
Es liegt nicht unbedingt an Berlin, dass Paul Bokowski von einer absurd-komischen Begegnung in die nächste schlittert.

Mit seinen Eltern beispielsweise, einer wildfremden Dame, die ihm völlig ungefragt Vorträge über Backrezepte hält, oder aber auch gerne mit sich selbst: Sei es, dass der passionierte Hypochonder angesichts einer drohenden Mandel-OP Dutzende von Abschiedsbriefen verfasst oder beim Möbelkauf in eine unvergessliche Weihnachtsfeier von IKEA gerät. Paul... continue
