Angermayer’s bureaucratic past and the chaotic joy of paradise. The opening of this collection introduces us to Angermayer, who, upon arriving in the realm of the dead, is met not with the expected bliss but rather confusion and discomfort. His initial observations are clouded by a sense of bewilderment and dissatisfaction as he navigates the unfamiliar environment filled with diverse souls, including children, which he has never personally liked. As he is summoned by an angel, Angermayer’s gruff demeanor clashes comically with the heavenly atmosphere, indicating his reluctance to embrace this new chapter. Ultimately, he longs for the simplicity and familiarity of his earthly life, highlighting the disconnect between his bureaucratic mindset and the whimsical nature of paradise.
