Guest of the ilb 2005
Ulrike Draesner was born in Munich in 1963. She studied Law, English, and Philosophy, and taught at the German Philology Institute in Munich. She has published widely in newspapers and magazines and has also worked for radio. Draesner’s first volume of verse, »gedächtnisschleifen« (1995; t: memoryloops), already demonstrates her characteristic linguistic precision, which consciously disorients the reader. Montage and collage are the techniques of choice in her prose work. Her most recent book is the novel »Spiele« (2004; t: Games). The author has received numerous grants and awards. She lives and writes in Berlin.
