Bicycles for Utrecht

An entertaining and profound debut novel about an unknown chapter of German-Dutch history: the confiscation of Dutch bicycles.
"Give me back my bicycle" became a catchphrase in the Netherlands after the war.
A sympathetic and practical engagement of the younger generation with their grandparents' guilt.
Available immediately
When Hauke visits his grandfather in the hospital for the last time, his grandfather reveals a dark chapter of his past: during World War II, he was stationed in the Netherlands and, among other things, was responsible for registering arrested Jews and confiscating bicycles. His grief for his grandfather quickly mingles with the thought of atonement: Hauke and his friends Safi and Lars launch the campaign "Give the Dutch their bicycles back". More and more participants join the bike tour to Holland – creating a fast-paced road trip with unusual encounters.
A likeable and practical engagement of the younger generation with the guilt of their grandparents.
