Lesung mit Ronya Othmann: Vierundsiebzig

In the organizer's words:

"I have seen. The ego is a witness. It speaks, and yet it has no language." This is how Ronya Othmann describes the process of storytelling in her new novel. She wants to find a form for the unspeakable, the genocide of the Ezidi population, the seventy-fourth, perpetrated by IS fighters in Shingal in 2014. Seventy-four is a journey to the origins, to the crime scenes. The journey leads to the camps and the front lines, to the living rooms of relatives and on to an Ezidi village in Turkey where no one lives today. It is about looking, listening, bearing witness, interweaving images and reports with one's own history, with a life as a journalist and author in Germany. Ronya Othmann creates a work of immense density, necessary clarity and rigor, a radically poetic form of documentary storytelling. Her voice is one of diaspora, which also leaves deep traces in the reader.
