by Marten Weber (Author)
Six friends meet for dinner in one of the world's tallest buildings. They have known each other for years, and talk openly about their past, their hopes, and their desires. They also share a secret only patient listening will uncover. Slightly surreal, wonderfully erotic, inspiring, and thought-provoking, Marten Weber's Spanking Schubert is an unusual novel. It gives voice to a group of people who are rarely heard, hidden forever behind the screen of ancient norms and traditions. In Asian societies, which place great emphasis on family and offspring, men are under enormous pressure to conform to family expectations. Caught between the pressure of work and family, they can only dream, and some dream more vividly than others.
