with Julia Schoch Insa Wilke
Julia Schoch is considered to be a “virtuoso of memory storytelling” (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung). After her bestselling novel “The Couple of the Century”, comes the triumphant final act of her captivating trilogy – Wild About a Wild Dream. This is the story of a momentous encounter. Far from home, a woman meets a Catalan writer and begins an affair. Their love brings everything into question – not just her relationship with her husband, but also how she sees her work. This experience leads her to make a decision that is not without risks: to be completely at one with herself and live as a writer. But can someone who’s completely at one with herself still be with others? With a husband, with children? Years later, she faces a new turning point in her life and meets the Catalan writer again. The arc between past and present is complete. Host: Insa Wilke
