1000 Coils of Fear
Author: Olivia Wenzel
Publisher: Thorndike Press a Part of Gale a Cengage Company
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"A multilayered and rhythmic debut novel about her life as a Black German woman living in Berlin and New York during the chaos of the 2016 U.S. presidential election from playwright Olivia Wenzel. A young woman attends a play about the fall of the Berlin Wall--and realizes she is the only Black person in the audience. She and her boyfriend are hanging out by a lake outside Berlin--and four neo-Nazis show up. In New York, she is having sex with a stranger on the night of the 2016 presidential election--and wakes up to panicked texts from her friends in Germany about Donald Trump's unlikely victory. Engaging in a witty Q&A with herself--or is it her alter ego?--she takes stock of our rapidly changing times, sometimes angry, sometimes amused, sometimes afraid, and always passionate. And she tells the story of her family: Her mother, a punk in former East Germany who never had the freedom she dreamed of. Her Angolan father, who returned to his home country before she was born to start a second family. Her grandmother, whose life of obedience to party principles brought her prosperity and security but not happiness. And her twin brother, who took his own life at the age of nineteen. Heart-rending, opinionated, and wry, Olivia Wenzel's remarkable debut novel is a clear-sighted and polyphonic investigation into origins and belonging, the roles society wants to force us into and why we need to resist them, and the freedoms and fears that being the odd one out brings"--
