A week ago a friend of mine invited me to a reading. Ruth Kluger was reading from her new book unterwegs verloren at the Literaturhaus München. We both enjoyed it a lot. She is an interesting person.
Later I wondered whether I would write about my living family members and friends in such an uncompromising way as she did. I guess not. She didn´t hide the fact that she didn´t like certain family members and it is also written in her books.

Have you tried Primo Levi? "If Not Now, Then When?" is absolutely splintering.
I wonder if after such experiences one can ever have a pleasant life.
