Drei ostdeutsche Frauen betrinken sich und gründen den idealen Staat

Three friends, a kitchen table, the night outside the window: Annett Gröschner, Peggy Mädler and Wenke Seemann talk. They talk about themselves as “East German women”, whatever that pigeonhole means, about the happiness of crooked lives, about the present with its constantly encroaching past. They drink, laugh and wrestle, talk about scraps of memories and contradictions, about the complexity of imprints and about ideals that have become alien over the years. In Buddhism, there are spirits that are born from carelessly discarded things – “What would the thing spirit of the GDR look like?” the three ask. Their book is as witty and warm-hearted towards remembering and reinventing oneself as any great social discussion deserves.
