Sibylle Berg
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sibylle Berg (born June 2, 1962 in Weimar, former East Germany) is a writer.
In the early 1980s she applied for permission to leave the East German state, a decision which eventually meant facing severe persecution by the authorities. In 1984 she started her career in Hamburg with contributions to various magazines, among them Die Zeit, with former chancellor Helmut Schmidt as co-editor.
After moving to Zürich in year???, she published stageplays that were translated into several languages. Among her other books such as Gold, Amerika, and others, is her latest success 'Ende gut...' which has not yet been translated into English.
