    Christian Kortmann's novel "Einhandsegeln" ("Single-Handed Sailing", 2021) tells the story of a voyage on the open sea by an anonymous sailor in the first person. Maneuvers, meal preparation, and the encounter with the maritime infinity fill the pages. Is it a sailing book? Is it a self-testimony or oceanography? Is it all in one? Yes and no. The novel indulges in sailing and maps the waters of the southern hemisphere. Against this backdrop, a man has become weary of a dubious way of life on land, reflecting on his personal existence. The novel contrasts the indulgence of being alone at sea and being social on land. Although the single-handed sailing trip sets the narrative pace until the last page, the book blends into a multifarious text that also puts the seafarer's morale to the test.
