Deutsch-Kroatische Autorin Jagoda Marinić liest aus ihren Werken
Co-sponsored by the Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies, the Chair in Croatian Studies, and the Munk-Goethe Writers Residency
A Tragedy and Spectacle of Human Striving and Remorse featuring Faust, Scholar and Necromancer, and The Devil Himself!
The young author Alina Bronsky is the fourth recipient of the Munk-Goethe Writers Residency. Her debut "Scherbenpark" is about 17-year-old Sascha who came from Moscow to Germany. Sascha is a commuter between two worlds and not at home in either of them but sharp-tongued and precocious enough to stand her ground – and to take the reader with her on a constantly accelerating journey.
