reading in German with projected English translation
Theodora Bauer is the author of two novels as well as stories and philosophical essays. A native of the Austrian province of Burgenland, Bauer's most recent novel Chikago follows the lives of three young protagonists fleeing poverty and misfortune on the 1920's Hungarian-Austrian border. A story with roots in lesser-known aspects of Austrian history, Chikago reminds readers that Central Europe was not always a destination of migrants seeking opportunity and a better life.
