Groaned today yet?
EVER GROANED TODAY?
Modern groaning as the fundamental state of the present.
Short Description:
A contemporary literary novel about people at their emotional limits.
Between burnout, self-optimization, sensory overload, dating madness, and constant digital stress, "Ever Groaned Today?" tells with satirical sharpness and psychological precision of a society that seemingly has everything — except peace and quiet.
An intelligent, absurd, and frighteningly honest look at perhaps the most honest sound of our time:
the groan.
Detailed Description:
Have you groaned today?
Maybe this morning when looking at your smartphone.
At the office.
In your home office.
At the gym.
While scrolling.
While relaxing.
While trying to finally "unwind" again.
Welcome to a present where people are slowly losing touch with themselves amidst self-optimization, emotional exhaustion, and constant digital bombardment.
"Ever Groaned Today?" is a contemporary literary novel with satirical sharpness about modern people who function, perform, communicate, therapize, date, consume, and constantly hit their emotional limits.
In an urban residential complex, diverse life paths converge:
overwhelmed employees, exhausted self-optimizers, constant digital communicators, fitness fanatics, mindfulness junkies, silent observers, and people who just want peace and quiet.
Sometimes absurdly funny.
Sometimes uncomfortably honest.
Sometimes disturbingly close to reality.
This book is not classic comedy and not pure satire.
It is a modern social panorama about the zeitgeist of a generation in a permanent state.
Intelligent.
Darkly humorous.
Provocative.
And unfortunately, all too true.
About the Author:
Marcus Greiling writes with precise observation about the emotional absurdities of modern societies.
His texts move between contemporary literary satire, psychological everyday observation, and societal status descriptions. He combines black humor with an unusually human perspective on the overwhelming nature of modern life.
"Ever Groaned Today?" is already considered one of the most unusual literary projects in the German-speaking contemporary market even before its publication.
