Description
I am more privileged than anyone in my family has ever been. And yet, I am screwed. More people hate me than my grandmother can imagine.
On the day of the parliamentary elections, I spend 20 minutes trying to convince her not to vote for the far-right party with this claim.
The Berlin narrator, daughter of a former East German punk and an Angolan student, constantly maintains a conversation with someone unspecified. Based on the way she addresses them and the type of questions she asks, we can only guess that it is either her long-deceased brother, an American immigration officer, or a psychologist, or perhaps a conversation with her own self. Olivia Wenzel writes poignantly and humorously about origin and loss, about the joy of life, loneliness, and the roles society assigns to individuals.
