Zwei der umtriebigsten und erfolgreichsten Slam-Poeten Deutschlands haben ihre besten Texte genommen und in eine Geschichte eingeflochten, die davon handelt, wie sie im Kampf gegen Faulheit, Zeitnot und Prokrastination ein Buch zu schreiben versuchen. Ein pointierter Mix aus launischen Dialogen und schräger Prosa! Wie ist es, mit Mitte zwanzig in einer Berliner WG binnen vier Wochen ein Buch zu schreiben, von dem der eine Autor erst kurz vor der Deadline erfahren hat? Insgeheim hoffen Lobrecht und Rosskopf, sich das Buch als Masterarbeit anrechnen lassen zu können. Weil Felix Politik studiert und Malte Jura, ist das eine sehr dumme Hoffnung. Aber das Motto für die zwei ist sowieso immer: Klappt schon irgendwie, weil es muss! Eingestreut in diese Rahmenhandlung sind die besten Slam-Texte der beiden: Warum findet Malte einfach keine Freundin, die ihn cool findet, weil er cool ist, und nicht, weil er grad zufällig da ist? Und warum kauft Felix Gänse bei Ebay? Liegen bleiben vs. endlich anfangen zu schreiben, Kommodenvermessen vs. Bumerangwerfen, gestreifte T-Shirts vs. ausdefinierten Bizeps und Hochdeutsch vs. Berliner Schnauze sind nur einige der Konfliktlinien zwischen den beiden Storytellern. Das Ergebnis ist zu witzig für ein Lexikon und zu smart für reine Comedy. Dieses Buch ist wie Berlin: jung, random und gut aussehend.
