Ab jetzt ist Ruhe

Marion Brasch's irresistible novel tells the story of her extraordinary family in the tension between East and West. Her father was the deputy Minister of Culture in the GDR, and her brothers, including Thomas Brasch, became known as writers, playwrights, and actors. With surprising ease, the "little sister" recounts the dramatic events in her family: success, revolt, the loss of her three brothers, and follows her path through adventures and turmoil to her own freedom. Rarely has a family story been told so personally and movingly as in this novel.
