from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hinterland is a fairytale novel by Feridun Zaimoglu from 2009.

reception

According to literary critic Michael Hametner from MDR Figaro , who creates a "fascinating narrative framework", the novel hovers between a "romantic love story and a fairytale story of lies". He will inspire readers "who can still feel the amazed child in themselves and - even as adults - like to have a wonderful and yet challenging fairy tale told". For the Neue Zürcher Zeitung the book shows Zaimoglu once more as "literary erotic, how he can only benefit our emotionally poor contemporary literature".
