ESSAYS ON CONTEMPORARY GERMAN LITERATURE

Rosy Singh, Essays in Contemporary German Literature, Goyal Publishers, 2017

This book is an attempt to trace some of the new developments that are visible in the contemporary German literary landscape. The fall of the Berlin Wall 1989 and the re-unification are generally taken as markers for contemporary German language literature. The turning point is the desire and the courage of some writers to explore themes other than the war and the holocaust. A cultural normalisation is happening but this development is still in its natal stages.
