In this autobiographical narrative, Gregor Hens deals with his longstanding addiction to nicotine. Even though he quit smoking after countless half-hearted attempts, he has no regrets. The old habit belongs to his past. Nevertheless, he questions his addiction to nicotine and the associated behavioral patterns.
