Otkud sol u moru

Otkud sol u moru

Brigitte Schwaiger

Why does she get married, even though she thirsts for freedom? Why does she marry a man she doesn't really like at all? Why does she marry an apartment, a television, and a washing machine instead of trying to figure out what she really wants?

The narrator flees from a provincial, respectable family home into an equally provincial bourgeois marriage. The strict restrictions of her role as a wife and the constant reproaches of her husband drive her little by little into despair and depression. When Brigitte Schwaiger's debut novel was published in 1977, the then 28-year-old became a literary star overnight. Her book, one of the best-selling works of German literature, has lost none of its relevance more than 30 years later: a literary masterpiece that tells the story of an attempt to escape bourgeois conditions with a lot of "galgenhumor" and wit, without pointing fingers.
