Dystopian short stories? Parallel women’s lives in Switzerland and Cameroon? A radical, documentary-style investigation into lived experiences of violence? A cheeky, literary French-style drama?


All this and much more from the very latest in feminist literature, selected, read and presented by the LeseSalon of Berlin’s BücherFrauen/women in publishing.


An exciting, literarily diverse evening featuring excerpts from the favourites for the BücherFrauen ‘Christine’ Literary Prize. Awarded every two years, this prize honours female authors whose writing embodies empowerment and contributes to gender equality. The prize is named after the writer and women’s rights activist Christine de Pizan (1364 to after 1429); the statuette awarded alongside the prize money was designed by the Karlsruhe-based artist Kassandra Becker.


  • For the past two years, this LeseSalon has been jointly curated by these two Berlin-based BücherFrauen, Lea Hübner and Judith Krieg.
