Photographer Hanno Ketterer opens a box from his grandmother's estate. Inside, he finds almost 1,000 field letters that his grandfather, as a German soldier during World War II, wrote from the front to his beloved wife at home - in freezing nights and scorching heat, from rain-soaked and dusty shelters. Outside, there was fear, violence, and deprivation. But the letters reveal something else: love and hope. Moved by this true and courageous love story, he launches the book project love letters from the war. What is remarkable is not only the deeply personal family story Ketterer tells, but also the book's distinctive design. The artist combines original letters and historical photographs with AI-generated images and contemporary narration. In doing so, he recreates a world that no longer exists. He takes the reader on a journey through time, making the events of the Second World War emotionally tangible. Although these letters were written more than eight decades ago, they resonate today with striking immediacy - in a world marked by uncertainty, conflict, and growing helplessness. They gently yet unshakably remind us: even in the deepest darkness, we retain the freedom to choose how we act. Ketterer's love letters from the war is a moving, timeless love story about the will to seek comfort in small moments. A profoundly personal work, yet one that moves on a universal level.
