Living In Between

'The value of actions doesn't lie in theiroutcomes, but rather in what happens betweenthem.' This quote from Maria Reinecke is wellsuited to her novel Living In Between, which isnow available in a new, revised edition in Germanand American English. The focus of this literarywork is less on the culmination of its plot as muchas what takes place within the story's spacetimeinterstices. The finest perceptions and feelingsof the two protagonists Marie and Anne - oris one of them only a reflection of the other? -form condensed interludes within and alongsidethe dramatic sequence of events. Memories,reflections, dreams, and traumas provide gentleaccompaniment to the plot and give readers directinsight into the characters' tumultuous inner lives.

Completed studies: Education, music, religious education, philosophy (TU Berlin). Training: Acting, real estate, hospice service, psychological consultant (psychology of grief), theology in dialogue.
