About the author

Richard Wagner (born April 10, 1952) is a Romanian-born German novelist. He has published a number of short stories, novels and essays.
A member of Romania's German minority, like his former wife, Herta Müller, he studied German and Romanian literature at Timişoara University. He then worked as a German language school teacher and as a journalist, and published poetry and short stories in German. He was also a member of Aktionsgruppe Banat, a German-speaking literary society.
In 1987, Wagner and Müller left Romania for West Berlin, to escape communist oppression and censorship in Nicolae Ceauşescu's Romania. He still lives in Berlin.

Reviews

[Fannie Gh.]

Eine sehr verwirrende Erfahrung. Der Schreibstill ist furchtbar, aber die Handlung ist gar nicht so schelcht, dass muss ich zugeben.

[Irena Ivanova]

Am început să citesc cartea aceasta numai pentru că am vrut să-mi exercit limba română. Este buna pentru cauza aceasta, dar este un pic plictisitoare. Nu aș recomanda-o vorbitorilor nativi.

[Sorina]

Subiect bun, actiune interesanta, dar stilul m-a plictisit groaznic. O poveste buna, cu potential daca era spusa mai bine.
