»literature Behind Bars « Jackie Thomae: Brüder

Mick and Gabriel are »Brothers«. But they don’t know each other or their father, who returned to Senegal after they were conceived. Jackie Thomae reads from her novel, which won the 2020 Düsseldorf Literature Prize, at the JVA for Women Lichtenberg. »How can you write about men so accurately and cool? About the East, skin colours, normality and chaos? Present­day Germany, astutely light.« [Die Zeit]
