Im Gespräch mit Antje Rávik Strubel: Der Einfluss der Fasane

Early one morning, Hella Karl stands at the mailbox and reads the news that will throw her off course: The star of the Berlin theater scene and gravitational center of the cultural world has taken his own life. Hella Karl, head of the arts section of a major newspaper, is not easily rattled and believes she has everything under control. But she has written a momentous article about the celebrated man - and now she is being held responsible for his death. Did he fail himself, or did Hella Karl write him to his death?
