Description
Emilia Papenburg has left her husband Benni and moved to New York with the children. The restart is supposed to free her from a family she believes she is failing – like her parents. But mother and father want to put the damaged structure back together: for moments of shared happiness, they accept old wounds, while Benni defends his freedom against any family obligation. With "pace and wit from the first page" (rbb radio3), Philipp Oehmke, after his celebrated debut "Schönwald," once again examines a German family in "Papenburg" (Piper) – and with it a society that promises autonomy and produces loneliness. Where does freedom end, and where does responsibility begin? ADMISSION: 16 EUR / 10 EUR Organizer: Stiftung Literaturhaus
