Why go

Miriam Cabe reads from her novel about four generations of women, a multigenerational family saga running from the educated middle class of Dresden through two world wars to a defining rupture after the move west. At its heart is Monika's decision, against fierce resistance in the 1960s, to keep an illegitimate Black child: the author herself. Expect an intimate, personal evening of autobiographical fiction, read in German. Tickets go on sale via Reservix from 1 August.
