Lothar Trolle: Anna fährt zur Uni, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The playwright, storyteller, poet, radio dramatist, and translator Lothar Trolle died on March 31, 2025, at the age of eighty-one. In the successor generation to Heiner Müller, Trolle is regarded, along with Thomas Brasch and Einar Schleef, as one of the key innovators in German-language drama. In one obituary, Volker Braun honored him as an "author who went beyond genres and adaptations." He went on to say: "Like the Mansfeld countryside he came from, his appearance was placid and taciturn, but his essence was alert and bruised. The experience of upheaval provided the raw material for his sophisticated, unpretentious plays, which are his legacy to the theater." Following the publication of the first two volumes of his texts, Heimatland (Homeland) and Geschichtsunterricht (History Lesson), the next installment in the series is Anna fährt zur Uni (Anna Goes to University). In his stories, songs, descriptions, choruses, dreams, Hanswurst (Jack Sausage) scenes, and theater texts, Trolle examines women's lives, day-to-day experience, and living conditions. He tells of happiness and adversity, of fears, injuries, afflictions, violence, and the lack of freedom, of hopes, wishes, dreams, and yearnings. Today, yesterday, the day before yesterday-and tomorrow.
