Pop up non fiction: I Am My Own Wife

Join us at FRIEDA-Women's Center e. V. as we analyse the book "I Am My Own Wife" by Charlotte von Mahlsdorf from an intersectional feminist lens. In our new non fiction series we will read books about communities that have historically been subjected to violence and erause, listening to their truths as a political act.
About the book:
A soft-spoken transvestite wanting nothing more than to live as a hausfrau, Charlotte von Mahlsdorf instead was caught up in the most harrowing dramas of 20th century Europe, surviving both the Nazis and the Communists. I Am My Own Wife is her exquisitely written autobiography where she reveals her lifelong pursuit of sexual liberty. The memoirs of a transvestite Berliner, the story of the wonderful Gründerzeit museum, a look at German culture from the point of view of a permanent outsider, Charlotte's tale like her life, is a surprising and provocative weave of sex, politics, and history.
