Anne Weiss has written several bestselling books. In 2008, together with her co-author Stefan Bonner, she wrote Generation Doof, which became a top bestseller and whose title has become synonymous for a generation shaped by excess and media consumption. In Generation Weltuntergang, the duo addressed the issue of climate change. The author’s most recent book: Mein Leben in drei Kisten will be published in December 2019. It is a personal account of her life as a minimalist and describes how she radically decimated her worldly goods according to all rules of sustainability. Alongside her own book project, she regularly works as a ghost writer and also writes for Spiegel Online and other magazines. Ann-Kathrin Schwarz lives and works in Berlin. She is involved with Animal Equality and is a founder of the group Writers for Future.
