The Birth of A Genre.

An hazardous journey from Zürich to Osaka. An unexpected
encounter with a pretty flight attendant. A clash of European cultures.
In the cozy closeness of the Business Class, a passenger
remembers his past, dreams his present and anticipates his future.
His life's a mirror-like fairy-tale, a play of see-through looking glasses,
a mirage of sorts. Nothing's real. Nothing's unreal either. The
frontier between true and untrue is a shady fuzzy line. Destiny -
or maybe the long flight's time-span - shall decide the issue.
Apparently.

He who owns a new language owns a new soul. Strawberries
deals with seven languages ' that's why its readers deal as well
with seven souls. The pay off is a moving, rich and deeply true
reading experience full of charm and empathy. Strawberries
means following a challenging and emotion-ridden plot
through multiple cloud-like language layers. It gives you the
intense and distressing feeling of a turbulent, eventful, multi-dimensional
and multi-cultural long haul flight. Its end will strike
you like a sudden out of the blue lightning.

Classy and sparkling like premium champagne! The first and
ultimate seven-language ' mostly English, Spanish and Italian '
novel ever written. A fast-paced and unputdownable intense love story
aboard an MD11 liner during an emotionally bumpy and
nightmarish journey from Zürich to Osaka. Upgrade to a comfy
armchair, and treat yourself to an ambiguous and enticing
space-time affair. Decode the puzzling dreams and fears of
its vivid and unforgettable characters. Brilliant unusual stuff ' an
outstanding novel in a first class of its own. Fly dangerously!
