Katja Oskamp: Die vorletzte Frau

In the organizer's words:

She is young, he, the famous writer, is almost old. She becomes his student, his lover, his confidante. A relationship full of devotion and cheerfulness - until his diagnosis changes everything. The relationship becomes a state of emergency. The lover - and carer - wants to help, but the man in her life moves away, the time of farewells begins - including a new life.
Katja Oskamp tells of the transformations that existence holds in store, of fragile lives, of a woman's roles. And the story of a great love.

Katja Oskamp studied theater studies and later at the German Literature Institute in Leipzig; she worked as a dramaturge at the Volkstheater Rostock. Her best-known book Marzahn, mon amour. Geschichten einer Fußpflegerin (2019) was awarded the Dublin Literary Award in its English translation.
