«Du bist nicht so wie andre Mütter» is Angelika Schrobsdorff's biographical novel about her mother, published by DTV in paperback (560 pages, in German).
Schrobsdorff reconstructs the life of her mother, Else Kirschner: a childhood in affluent Jewish Berlin at the turn of the 20th century, a marriage to a Prussian nobleman, and the flight to Bulgaria with her daughters when Nazism arrived. Using letters, albums and memories, she paints the portrait of a free woman and reflects on memory, uprootedness and reinvention.
The first edition dates from 1994, in the dtv series (no. 11916); in 2016 it received the Madrid Booksellers' Prize in the fiction category.
For readers interested in historical memory, biographies of unconventional women, and Jewish families under Nazism.
Angelika Schrobsdorff was a German author.
