Literature Behind Bars Karosh Taha: Im Bauch Der Königin

In her novel, Karosh Taha tells the story of two German-­Kurdish families and explores the question of what it means to be a Kurdish woman today. Amal and Shahira stand for facets of femininity and for different perspectives on life. »All of this finds expression in the book’s unique language, which traces the fault lines in its vividness and characteristic power.« [SZ]

Karosh Taha speaks about her second novel at a local prison.
