Exploring themes of fate and contingency, the narrative follows an unnamed woman through five distinct lives, each culminating in a different death. Starting in the early twentieth-century Hapsburg Empire, her journey spans from childhood tragedy in Vienna to a tumultuous marriage in Russia, leading to her imprisonment in a labor camp. In another scenario, she escapes and returns to Berlin as a celebrated writer. Jenny Erpenbeck's work provides a profound reflection on the intersections of personal and historical events within German and German-Jewish history.
