The 92-Year-Old Lady Who Made Me Steal a Dead Man`s Car

A thought-provoking novel for readers who enjoy literary fiction, unpredictable originality, bizarre mystery and cool, philosophical reasoning. An old lady and a young man meet on a crosswalk in Manhattan in bizarre circumstances which drastically change the directions of their lives. A foul-mouthed youth is killed in a traffic accident. The old lady`s apartment is visited by folks that would make most people run to their psychologist. A mass murderer explains why he thinks he is a good man. A cool Jesus asks for parts of The Bible to be rewritten. Literary characters come alive and attempt something, which would make their authors, if they knew about it, scream in horror or roll over in their graves. It takes a while for the police to get involved, but when it finally happens, the outcome is one that nobody could have predicted. This novel invites you to let go of reality and float along in a world in which realism, fiction and philosophy merge into unpredictability, wisdom and fun.

The author grew up in the south of Germany. Today, he and his family reside in Australia. Under his pen name, Fred Schäfer, he has written more than twenty books: novels, memoirs, an autobiography and nonfiction books. The 92-Year-Old Lady Who Made Me Steal a Dead Man`s Car is his bestselling and most imaginative literary fiction novel. Identity Uncertain is the title of Fred Schäfer`s philosophical, stirring and inspiring autobiography. Whether or not you are a sci-fi fan, Fred`s novel, Having Coffee and Cake with the Devil in Chicago, is a stimulating, metaphysical and funny sci-fi novel waiting to be turned into a movie. Perhaps with George Clooney and Natalie Portman as the main protagonists. Should you walk into Steven Spielberg you may like to mention the book to him. Seriously? Just joking. On the other hand, why not? - Not to forget, Fred Schäfer`s latest novel, Unedited Realities, is a riveting philosophical sci-fi mystery. Brilliant, creative, humorous, and provocative.
