Emine Sevgi Özdamar: “A space limited by shadows”. Review. – Culture

Nobody tells so freely, so full of feelings and stories from the great times of the theater, except Emine Sevgi Özdamar. After a long silence, her fourth novel is now published. He knocks you over.

Once, Emine Sevgi Özdamar, Günter Grass and Christa Wolf were invited by the then Federal Chancellor Gerhard Schröder to read from their books under the heading “West-Eastern Divan”. Özdamar later said that she jokingly said: “Günter Grass is West, Christa Wolf is East, and I am the Divan.” She can be generously funny with the unclean German cultural scene. Your new book ends on a different note, that of the wrath of despair. There were reasons for this.
