I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE FEELING THIS - 101 Texts That Will Change Your Life

  • The Clara Lösel phenomenon: A powerful young voice whose deeply moving, emotional texts perfectly capture the modern zeitgeist.
  • Her spectacular debut Wehe du gibst auf was a #1 Spiegel and BookTok bestseller with over 150,000 copies sold!

In a world where being human is sometimes anything but easy, these texts strike straight to the heart. With uncompromised honesty and immense linguistic power, Clara Lösel finds words for what we have all felt at some point but often don't dare to speak aloud. For her, it is about truly looking - looking at oneself and looking out for others.
Her writing explores love and society, the joy of life and the weight of grief, beauty standards and mental health, and the fierce strength that lies hidden within one's own vulnerability. But above all, it carries one vital, powerful message: You are not alone in this.
