Reading & discussion as part of the LiteraTOUR Nord | Moderation: Dr. Stephan Lesker (University of Rostock)
She leaves behind three children and a hyphen. She leaves me her friends, her library, her unease. I write after her as a missing daughter, an angry woman, a silenced poet and wonder how little she lets herself be summoned when I want her to. She has - now heavenly - finally emancipated herself. I write about my multifaceted mother, her wisdom and comedy, her husband, the thing with the guinea pigs and myself.
