Stephan Valentin creates his own style of literature with this “shortcut” novel. Shortcuts are a series of short episodes in which each character is equal, each episode building upon the others to create a novel. The descriptions and interactions make shortcut novels as fast-paced and alive as a story told on the ‘big screen.’ The stories captivate the reader through their authenticity. Valentine’s heroes are confronted by life, with its constant ups and downs, pulling the reader into the abyss of despair and exultation of love and trust. The reader becomes a voyager between identities and destinies. It is a close up account of real human beings, riddled with the strengths and weakness that have defined us for all time.
