A place that we all seek out, that we use, that we long for – yes, sometimes a place of longing, a sanctuary. A place of great social importance, about which we all too often remain silent.
Michael Holzwarth explores precisely this place – through further literature, but also various other forms of inspection. He invites us to a literary-philosophical journey into various loo circles and to an anthropological-cultural-scientific exploration of the most diverse loo settings and loo functions: From the social break to the shy bladder to the smartphone. The explorations are not limited to the visual; Holzwarth also gets to the bottom of various smells and sounds. An insightful, versatile and amusing read in the best sense of the word.
