Description

An avant-garde poet, Yoko Tawada writes a very experimental novel about a young Vietnamese girl is invited to a youth conference in East Berlin. While there she is kidnapped but manages to escape her abductor and flees to Paris where she is completely alone, broke. There she looses herself in Catherine Deneuve films while her real adventures begin. A feminist, Tawada's work is all about alienation and reinvention.
