Reading: Wiebke Puls (Münchner Kammerspiele)

In her new book, Albanian-British philosopher and star author Lea Ypi once again follows in the footsteps of her family. The trigger is an unknown photo of her grandparents from 1941, which she discovers by chance on the internet. In a rousing piece of research, she follows her grandmother into the lost world of the Ottoman aristocracy, to the cradle of the new nation states in the Balkans and, of course, to Albania, first under fascist occupation, then under communist rule. Captivating, empathetic and in her inimitable tone, the author asks herself what she really knows about her ancestors. A family saga and profound reflection at the same time (Suhrkamp // Engl. by Eva Bonné) - the clever and moving
prequel to her international bestseller "Frei".
