About

Irmgard Keun was a German writer known for her sharp, satirical novels set during the Weimar Republic and the Nazi era. Works like Das kunstseidene Mädchen (1932) and Nach Mitternacht (1937) follow ordinary women navigating political terror and social upheaval. After Nach Mitternacht was published, she was forced into exile - the Nazi regime had banned her books.
