Esther Dischereit

Esther Dischereit has emerged as one of the most prominent writers of her generation, and this volume is the first detailed assessment of her contributions to contemporary German literature. Along with an in-depth interview and previously unpublished work by Dischereit, Esther Dischereit features a series of essays examining the various ways Dischereit has explored her identity as both a woman and a Jew in post-Holocaust Germany. An ideal introduction to Dischereit’s work, this book will be of substantial interest to anyone interested in German literature, women’s studies, and Jewish studies.
