Written in the 1920s, the novel by Jewish author Maria Lazar was long considered lost. Its rediscovery and first publication is a minor literary sensation. The text is a breathless dialogue between four friends, as different as night and day, and was recently premiered at the TD Berlin.

VIERMAL ICH
“Every word I speak should be a weapon.
And I am the one speaking. Yes, me! Me alone!”
On a wild ride through her own life, driven by an enormous narrative urge, a first-person narrator forges her own personal reality. A voice that desperately wants to be heard. Across childhood, adolescence, and early adulthood, she and her three friends struggle against the constraints and ascribed roles of womanhood. Each develops her own distinct instinct, her own strategy in the fight for her place in life. With ever-increasing speed and mystery, times and levels intertwine, and soon the question arises: Who is actually telling this story? And what is reality and what is fiction?
