A true story about friendship and its power to change our lives. In Berlin-Moabit, on a street corner between a late-night convenience store and a bakery, two men meet – two worlds collide. Jerome is a successful real estate agent. His life consists of viewings, emails, and business trips, seven days a week. On paper, he has everything anyone could wish for. But inside him, there's an emptiness that neither money nor success can fill. Andi has been living on the streets for 20 years. Addicted to heroin, without prospects, scarred by a life that has pushed him further and further to the margins. His wounds aren't just physical – but the wound on his leg could soon cost him his life. On his way to get a quick coffee to go, Jerome has often passed Andi's usual spot. But on this one day, he pauses. Instead of walking by, he listens. And then he makes Andi an offer that will change everything—for both of them. Jerome is leaving soon for business, and he asks Andi if he'd like to move into his apartment for those two weeks. What begins as a spontaneous decision blossoms into an extraordinary friendship that completely transforms both their lives. "Two New Lives" is a story that touches, challenges, and inspires. Known from the "ZEIT" podcast of the same name, which resonated with thousands, this book now finally tells the whole story. New product
