Product description

MIMI is beautiful, talented and successful - and it is impossible to imagine the German television landscape without her. With her fun-loving nature, she is not only a popular guest on talk shows, but also a role model for many. But what only a few knew for a long time: The sympathetic entertainer numbed her pain and feelings of guilt with alcohol for almost 30 years and regularly lost control of her life. She kept up appearances to the outside world - and became sicker and sicker in the process. Today she is a dry alcoholic and in her book she tells relentlessly openly about her life with the folk drug - and her demons, which she believed she was fighting with it. "Trinkerbelle" is the touching and true story of a woman who, after years of struggles, was finally allowed to sober up and has not had to drink since the Assumption of Mary in 2018.

'I have been one of the classic functional drinkers for almost thirty years, although the term functional always sounds a bit strange in this context. Because very little has really worked in my life. I was full of fuel and yet I was always on reserve. My life was a construct of lies and cover-ups, of physical and mental pain that I couldn't tell anyone about - because then I would have had to admit where it came from. I wanted to live, but I didn't want to go on living like this anymore.' MIMI
