Dr. Ben Manuel begegnet als Arzt vielen Menschen. Unter ihnen befinden sich auch einige, die sich aufgrund schwerer Schicksale bereits aufgegeben haben. Ein Teil von ihnen lebt bewusst abseits unserer Gesellschaft auf der Straße. Da gibt es diese junge Frau, die verzweifelt nach ihrem Kind sucht. Sie findet Halt bei ihrer älteren Freundin, die ein ähnliches Schicksal hat. Oder der junge Mann, der von seinem Vater so sehr verachtet wird, dass er seine Leidenschaft zum Tanzen aufgibt und aus Wut und Verzweiflung alkohol- und drogenabhängig wird. Das kleine Mädchen, das von seinem Stiefvater im Alkoholrausch fast totgeschlagen wurde, kann zwar durch eine aufwendige OP gerettet werden, doch sie wird ihr Leben lang an den Folgen dieser Misshandlung leiden. Sie alle tragen Splitter im Herzen, durch die sie vor den Trümmern ihres Lebens stehen, und alles um sie herum scheint zu zerbrechen. Dr. Manuel versucht, für diese Menschen da zu sein. Gemeinsam mit einigen Weggefährten, die das gleiche Ziel verfolgen, tut er alles für sie, was in seiner Macht steht. Aber was hat seine Adoptivtochter Joy mit all diesen Menschen und Schicksalen zu tun? Ist sie das Bindeglied, das am Ende alle zusammenführt? Denn diese berührenden und tragischen Schicksale sind auf eine geheimnisvolle Weise von Anfang an miteinander verbunden, und erst im Laufe der Geschichte werden die Zusammenhänge klar.

Wenn Sie David Friedrich auf Google suchen, müssen sie erst an dem gleichnamigen Schlagzeuger und Reality-TV-Star vorbeiscrollen und anschließend am Maler Caspar David Friedrich. Aber dann finden Sie ihn. Mit seinen Texten unterhält er (also David Friedrich, Autor dieses Buches) seit 2007 Menschen auf der Bühne oder vor der Kamera, bei Poetry Slams oder beim Kabarett. Nur selten waren Friedrichs Inhalte autobiographisch oder persönlich, meist behielten sie eine gewissen Distanz zum Autor selbst, schließlich ging es ihm eher darum, das Publikum zu unterhalten. Nun zieht er aber blank. Er stellt sich seinen Ängsten und schreibt über seine posttraumatischen Belastungsstörungen, seine Depressionen und Panikattacken und wird dabei zunehmend unvorsichtiger und ehrlicher. In »doll« geht es um intensive Texte, die nicht nach Bestätigung suchen, sondern unbequem sein wollen. Politik und Gesellschaft kommentiert er überspitzt und voller Ironie, aber nicht mehr mit dem Ziel, zu unterhalten - das Lachen soll einem im Halse stecken bleiben. Die Texte wollen nicht zum Nachdenken anregen, sondern zum Handeln. Gleichzeitig hat dieses Buch keinen Anspruch, keine Hoffnung, es könne irgendwas verändern, denn die Wahrheit ändert nichts. Sie ist einfach nur sehr »doll«.
