Buchvorstellung mit Mechtild Blankenagel, moderiert von Bernhard Schlink

In the organizer's words:

The art of losing yourself

What happens when you leave your almost perfect life - and suddenly meet yourself? In her debut novel "Eine gewisse Unruhe" , Mechtild Blankenagel tells the story of Nora: in her early 40s, married for 18 years, two children, a dog, a cat - and on the run. In a house in Italy, alone with her paints and canvases, she strips away old memories and certainties, questions old role models and also herself. It is a novel about female self-empowerment, about hidden talents, about a woman on a quest - and about the fact that we sometimes find something completely different from what we expected.

Mechtild Blankenagel, born in 1964, lives in Berlin. After a career as a lawyer, she switched to systemic counseling. Her focus: women and couples in transition. She has now published her first novel, "Eine gewisse Unruhe" - endearing, touching and entertaining.
Bernhard Schlink, born in 1944, lives in Berlin and New York. The multi-award-winning writer and lawyer became internationally renowned with his novel "The Reader". He will moderate the discussion about the freedom to break new ground.
