As a modern form of the letter novel, the book deals with accidental e-mail correspondence between a single man and a married woman. The novel became a bestseller and is read all over the world. The stage version was premiered on May 7, 2009 at the Wiener Kammerspiele . The film adaptation Gut gegen Nordwind (film) by the German director Vanessa Jopp with Nora Tschirner and Alexander Fehling in the leading roles followed in 2019 . In 2009 the serial novel All Seven Waves appeared , which was also a great success.
