About this book

Adrian has always believed that love means staying. After his parents die, he lives alone in the family home. Seeking relief from loneliness, he orders a lifelike silicone doll and names her Sophie.

Then something impossible happens: Sophie comes to life. What begins as the fulfilment of a dream changes as Sophie discovers the world and learns to feel, question and make her own decisions.

Das Recht zu gehen explores love and possession, artificial life and human longing – and asks whether loving someone also means allowing them to leave.
