Our perception significantly shapes our perception of reality, space and time. But how would our reality change if we could free ourselves from the limitations of our perception? Little Dominique comes a little closer to the answer to this question when he suddenly stumbles out of his sheltered everyday life into a completely unknown world in which nothing is as it seems. This new world is made up of different colors, gravity is upside down and the inhabitants barely reach the 10-year-old's chest. Can Dominique's new companion bring light into the darkness? And is it possible that entire universes exist right under our noses without us being able to perceive them? Or did Dominique just dream it all?

Light still burns in the urn

A dead man on the Elbe in Dresden. In addition, a policeman, who stands in a bad mood early in the morning in the pouring rain: Inspector Becker, soaked, hungry and freezing.

Because it's all about the big picture

In the midst of the Canadian mountain landscape, a stressed and permanently dissatisfied manager finds inner peace. Under the loving guidance of a wise old lady, they experience the beauty of nature and reflect on their own lives and the true meaning of contentment while observing the social behavior of a pack of wolves. The book combines the insights of successful literary works, various religions, teachings and wisdom of primitive peoples, and observations from the animal and plant world into a sensitive, comprehensible, and empathetic narrative. The story and its conclusion represent the lowest common denominator of these sources and offer the reader an inspiring guide for imitation: the eight pillars for a self-determined and contented life.
