About this ebook

Christoph T. M. Krause lives in Cologne, Germany. 2020 was a fateful year for the European Union and the United Kingdom. In 2016, the United Kingdom decided to leave the EU. This was topped by a worldwide pandemic, which not only cost a lot of money, but also many human lives. Throughout the whole year, Krause wrote letters to his "old" friend Michael in England on a regular basis, where he describes his feelings about his long-standing love for England. His letters are an homage to England, herself part of a union, which has decided to leave her friends in the European Union behind forever. With plaintiveness, Krause realises at the end of the year, that the friendship between the two countries, and especially between their people will never end regardless.

Seit 2020 ist er Buchautor und schreibt Sachbücher, aber auch Romane und Erzählungen. Dabei sind seine Interessen weit gefächert.

"Schreiben bedeutet für mich, das, was mich unter Umständen Jahre bewegt, endlich einmal festzuhalten und damit den Leser in eine für ihn vielleicht fremde Welt mitzunehmen. Christoph T. M. Krause, lives in Cologne. Krause has been a dog service provider for over 20 years and runs a successful company. Since 2020 he has been a book author and writes non-fiction books, but also novels and stories. His interests are wide-ranging. "The writing just flows out of me, the thought arises in my head and develops as I write." His professional portfolio is just as versatile as writing: from studying for a teacher's degree, to many years of working in the sales department of a computer company, to his own company in the dog sector, there is a lot to be said for it. "For me, writing means finally capturing what may move me for years and taking the reader into a world that might be alien to him.
