Richard Kämmerlings expected in the “world” or “Large” of this year’s Ingeborg Bachmann Prize winner Sharon Dodua Otoo and their story about an egg. Other critics raving. Only a newspaper holding it.
“Who wants to be an egg? Not really round, not really stable, not really attractive” , citing the TAZ from the text, with the Sharon Dodua Otoo has won this year’s Ingeborg Bachmann prize.
“it will be something big” , Richard Kämmerlings prophesied in the WORLD in view of the author and summarizes the narrative together so:
“from the clichéd argument about the ideal hardness of the breakfast egg to general amazement a historical panorama between war and carbon develops era and a mythical story of the beginning and end of life. the egg itself shall assume responsibility for their own defiant soft Stay and the narrator role equal to it. “
” Maybe you have in be born London and living in Berlin, with as much narrative wit and sharp eye produce German history again in a completely new travesty “, Roman Bucheli suspected in the nEW Zurcher Zeitung over Sharon . Dodua Otoo
“not outstanding, not funny and cool”
“Yes, well done, linguistically but not outstanding – and not funny and cool, like the jury found “, holds Gerrit Bartels in TAGESSPIEGEL is the only contrast. “With German as a foreign language it is but also” , Tilman Spreckelsen noted in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.
However, enough of the jury the broken German of Israeli Tomer Gardi not well. In the SÜDDEUTSCHEN NEWSPAPER Kathleen Hildebrand defended vehemently in their opinion “warm” text “in the language (…), the immigrants and refugees after a while in the country to speak “ learned, and tells how uncomfortable she felt during the jury discussion about this text and author. You had to look away:
“But what do you see as silk makers, old men in beige outdoor jackets and young men, leggy and long hair, which in their notebooks? words such as ‘contemporaneity’ write. All white, all privileged. A little diversification, a little more of the wild, colorful, endangered reality did this event very well. “
” the greatest personal defeat “
the German-Russian relationship does certainly not the creation of the Russian Institute” dialogue of civilizations “in Berlin well, to read from Karl Schlögel article” All this Putin-fans “for the WORLD out.
“fact that it was Berlin, the Russian Berlin, where the German-Russian entanglements ‘century of extremes’ are as visible as in no other place, the stage is on which a former KGB chief should set the tone in a ‘dialogue of civilizations’, is for me, according to Putin’s attack on the Ukraine, the greatest personal defeat in my life – both scientifically and politically “ writes Russia historian.
He is appalled that the Germans, including politicians and outraged citizens, “false sense of sympathy” and “out of cowardice or egotism” “Russian world view” would result: “a left that gladly invokes Liebknecht and Luxembourg, but the warlords in the Donbass does helping hand and nothing to complain about on the Russian bombs in Aleppo; a Pegida, the posters with ‘Putin, save us’ carries in Dresden and Putin black Nachtwolf motorcycle troupe welcomes you. “
Finally something poetology
So bitter . should not end one drum at the end a little poetry Specifically:.. poetology the TAGESSPIEGEL quotes the deceased with 93 French poet Yves Bonnefoy:
“poetry is a attempt to address the reality of non-conceptual way. With her words she seeks to revive the direct reference to the designated thing, so this freed from its conceptual incarceration presences give a complete habitable place for us. “
