Brigitte Reimann (Author) Brigitte Reimann (1933-1973) was among East Germany''s most significant writers. Like her heroines, she was spirited and outspoken, addressing issues and sensibilities otherwise repressed in the GDR. She believed passion­ately in socialism, yet never joined the party; stayed with her second husband, yet pursued a series of affairs. Her stated aim was to live ''thirty wild years instead of seventy well-behaved ones''. In 1960, her brother left for the West and she began writing Siblings. She died from cancer at the age of thirty-nine, a celebrated writer and cult figure.Lucy Jones (Translator) Lucy Jones is a literary translator who lives in Berlin. She has translated the works of Anke Stelling, Theresia Enzensberger and Silke Scheuermann, among others. Her own writing has been published in Litro magazine, SAND journal, Pigeon Pages and 3am magazine.>
