KulturBad Meinberg - Author Reading with Judith Hoersch: "Niemands Töchter" — Haus am Kurpark, Veranstaltungsraum 1, Horn-Bad Meinberg
Description was written before the event

Alma and Isabell are nobody's daughters. Alma grows up in the Eifel region of the 1980s, but this bright and curious girl feels like a stranger in her own family, who run a bakery there. Her origins are a subject no one speaks of. Years later, Isabell is haunted by the painful absence of her mother. That gap in her past shapes her present - the way she feels, thinks, and navigates her own family life.

Between Polaroids, lies, and lost dreams, a family secret unfolds that binds the two women across generations, only coming to light decades later.

A novel about what we lose, what remains - and the courage to seek one's own happiness. Judith Hoersch reads from her book and talks about how it came to be.
