Julia Schoch: Wild after a wild dream - reading and conversation with Annette Pehnt
Tuesday, 01/04/2025 / 07:30 PM / House of Literature Freiburg
Julia Schoch is "a master at using simple sentences to describe a deep psychological dizziness" (Literarische Welt). In "Wild nach einem wilden Traum" (dtv, 2025), it is love that shakes everything up. With the story of a momentous encounter, the author concludes her trilogy of novels which, after "The Incident" and "The Lovers of the Century", completes the "Biography of a Woman" and once again plumbs the depths of memory. Her own life becomes a literary mirror of our society at the turn of the millennium.
"What do I tell in the trilogy? That we have different roles in life and often don't know what we are to others. In the three books, I want to do justice. A pipe dream, perhaps. But a beautiful one," says Julia Schoch. She talks to her colleague Annette Pehnt about the big questions of life, love and writing.
