Carl Kollhoff, in his seventies, is an unusual bookstore salesman. In the evening, after closing time, he carefully wraps a few books as if giving them as gifts and delivers them to the homes of his exceptional customers on a stroll through the picturesque streets of the city. He almost has a friendship with these strange people who are closed off in their dream world, because he is their main connection with the outside world. They all remind Carl of a literary figure, and in his imagination he endows them with the qualities of popular novel heroes, while he only knows about them what kind of reading is expected of him week after week.
One day, however, Sasa, a curious and curious nine-year-old girl, suddenly turns up next to him, who not only turns the old bookseller's world upside down, but also the reading habits of his customers, and even his life...
The book walk is a heartwarming story about the magical power of books and the miracles hidden in everyday life. This charming novel is an ideal gift for any book lover.
