From March to August 2024, Carolin Würfel (born 1986 in Leipzig) lived and worked as the Poet in Residence of the Kurt Tucholsky Literature Museum in Rheinsberg. During her stay, two texts were written: a diary and an essay in which she reflects on how a woman writer can find her space in the male-dominated Rheinsberg. She will present passages from the two texts, which will be published in the "Rheinsberger Bogen", for the first time on October 9th.
After studying history and journalism in Berlin and Istanbul, Carolin Würfel worked as a freelance journalist. Her first book, "Ingrid Wiener and the Art of Liberation", was published in 2019. This was followed in 2023 by the book "Three Women Dreamed of Socialism", in which she interviews her predecessors in the GDR when they were young themselves: Christa Wolf, Brigitte Reimann and Maxie Wander. She is currently working on her first novel.
