Irene Dische at the Romanfabrik

American Author Delights German Audience
June 24, 2009. On June 24, American author Irene Dische read from her new crime novel, “Ein Job”, at the Romanfabrik.  The reading was the first in a series of readings concerning life in several cities, such as New York, Istanbul, and Berlin.  The book tells the story of a young Kurdish-German man who moves to New York City to lead a life of crime. Irene Dische, who splits her time between New York and Berlin, incorporated many Kurdish expressions, which she learned from her Kurdish friends in Berlin, into the work.  A question and answer session with the approximately fifty audience members followed the reading.
