A lecture by literary scholar Regina Dieterle examines Bachmann's 1971 novel «Malina» as a key modernist work. The novel tells of a female narrator caught between three men – Malina, her partner; Ivan, her romantic desire; and her father – who ultimately destroys her sense of self. It confronts Vienna's fascist past with unflinching clarity. Dieterle also references Bachmann's correspondence with Max Frisch. The lecture is in German.
