Female protagonist

RomanceMinor Subplot

Ruth Rowax ist Anfang vierzig, überzeugter Single und notorisch auf Diät. Wann immer sie als Leiterin eines Korrespondenzbüros Zeit dafür findet, quält sie sich beim Joggen. Für eine New Yorkerin im Jahr 1991 nichts Besonderes. Doch Ruth, Tochter zweier jüdischer Auschwitz-Überlebender, ist in Australien aufgewachsen und erst später nach New York übergesiedelt. Die Frage nach ihren europäischen Wurzeln lässt sie nicht los, und so beschließt sie nach dem Fall der Mauer, mit ihrem verwitweten Vater Edek nach Polen zu reisen und auf Spurensuche zu gehen. Es wird eine Reise zu den Orten seiner Vergangenheit und ein tiefes Eintauchen in die Traumata der zweiten Generation, in die Sprachlosigkeit und die unausgesprochene, tiefe Liebe zwischen Vater und Tochter. Zu viele Männer wurde 2024 von der Regisseurin Julia von Heinz verfilmt, mit Lena Dunham und Stephen Fry in den Hauptrollen.
