Samenvatting:

What is worth more, your family or politics? The new novella Drosophila casts a vivid shadow over the concrete streets of Berlin. Emerging author Coward Huntington's authentic characters and searing humour drops us into a modern landscape, a world of clashing values, an ever changing, yet familiar world set in the summer of 2020. Studiously following lockdown measures, the disenchanted Johanna finds herself unable to enjoy her first free summer in Berlin. After outgrowing her apartment with her mother and a plague of fruit flies, she is forced to work at her estranged uncle Ingo's fruit shop, against her better judgment. She will quickly find just how deep and dark his conspiracies and paranoia will take the two of them, and what she will lose in return.
