Women on the move: Slata Roschal: "I want to drink wine and wait for the end of the world"
A woman who has what, according to conventional categories, constitutes a successful biography, sits in a hotel room and thinks about leaving everything behind: her husband, her children, her existence. Torn by a vague dissatisfaction, driven by excessive demands, she accepts a translation job that changes everything.
A slim, radical book that leaves no stone unturned.
Slata Roschal, born in St. Petersburg in 1992, completed her doctorate in Slavic studies at LMU Munich. She has received numerous scholarships and prizes for her literary work, including the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Literature Prize and a working scholarship from the Free State of Bavaria. Her debut novel "153 Formen des Nichtseins" was nominated for the German Book Prize in 2022.
