Personaje memorabile, un remarcabil simț al limbii și al construcției narative sunt doar câteva dintre calitățile acestui surprinzător roman al lui Bogdan Coșa. Istoria unei familii rurale, apăsată de maledicția insecurității, a alcoolismului, a neșansei sociale în care tinerii își visează plecarea, ne amintește, cu discreție, de fragilitatea umană în aceste vremuri derutante. Carte a deplinei maturități creatoare, Cât de aproape sunt ploile reci marchează o dată pe harta prozei actuale.

Story
Julia und Álvaro sind glücklich miteinander. Der traditionelle Salzgarten mit seinem erlesenen Meersalz ist erfolgreich. Julias kleines Restaurant wird immer beliebter. Alles könnte so schön sein, wenn nicht ausgerechnet Jens, Julias Bruder und Vater ihres geliebten Patensohns Emil, in der Nähe eine Tauchstation für Touristen eröffnen wollte. Denn zu Jens' Plan gehört, dass einige Unterwasserfelsen gesprengt werden. Doch diese Sprengungen würden das gesamte Ökosystem an diesem Küstenabschnitt gefährden - und natürlich auch den Salzgarten.
