I don’t exist

Stina Semrau | Germany

Gnome is convinced that he does not exist. There would be many things he would do if he existed. He would sit at the table, eat an apple and maybe do a cartwheel – but he doesn’t exist. Yet he does exactly these things. He sits at the table, eats an apple and does a cartwheel. Suddenly he makes eye contact with the reader. How can that be? He must exist if he can be seen!
A picture book about the question of one’s own existence, self-perception and when something is real. Because with imagination anything can be real, even a fictional creature.
