A children's book? Not a children's book? A book about suffering? A book about endings? Does it tell a fable? A fairy tale? Is it even a story at all? Or is it more of a meditation? Benedikt Erenz asked himself these questions when "Duck, Death and Tulip" was published three years ago. He concluded that it is a book for small people and for big people: a masterful and infinitely comforting book that can find its place on the most diverse shelves. He was absolutely right: the book has sold over 50,000 copies in the German-speaking world and has been translated into sixteen languages. Now "Duck, Death and Tulip" is being released in a handy format and elegant design, for everyone who wants to carry it in their pocket rather than just placing it on a shelf.
