“A house is the third skin, after the skin of flesh and clothing”
German history rages in a house in Brandenburg: Jenny Erpenbeck conjures up 15 people and fates that populate this house over a period of 100 years, accumulating, intersecting, reflecting, intersecting, and refracting within it. From the German Empire through the Weimar Republic, National Socialism, the GDR, and the post-reunification period, a panorama of German realities and the violence inherent in every system and every era unfolds. The house's residents are both perpetrators and victims of this violence, thrown into the shadow of time, and their very existence testifies to the fact that political and social change is based on repression and occupation.
