between/rent: Ruth-Maria Thomas - Young literature in shared flats

"Our fall was a summer of the century, right into the summer." The late noughties and early 2010s in a small East German town, the first great love that wants to do everything right. Until it tips over. Back in her childhood bedroom, Jella wonders how it could have come to this. She takes a closer look at her upbringing in Lusatia. Small towns and gravel pits, gangster rap and glittery lip gloss. To friends who carried her through so much. And the moment when Yannick's hands closed around her neck.

In her debut novel "Die schönste Version" (Rowohlt, 2024), which was nominated for the German Book Prize 2024, Ruth-Maria Thomas talks about setting and crossing boundaries, about recognition and awakening, which she will discuss in the "zwischen/miete" series. The series is moderated and organized by a team of students.
