Irmgard Keun in the Light of a Precise Literary Biography

Tobias Lehmkuhl, born in 1976, has been working as a freelance journalist since 2002, writing reviews, essays, and radio features, mainly for the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and Deutschlandfunk Kultur; he received the Berlin Prize for Literature Criticism in 2017. This expertise also shapes his view of Irmgard Keun: not merely as a historical figure, but as a literary voice with urban energy, wit, and resilience. His new book unfolds Keun's life in a narratively rich form, intertwining biography and cultural-historical analysis. ([rowohlt.de](https://www.rowohlt.de/autor/tobias-lehmkuhl-1842))
