Barbara Honigmann’s texts oscillate between disclosure and concealment. This leitmotif manifests itself in the choice of genre and structure of her works, in her use of language, in the way she draws her characters and in her double life as a woman writing in German and a painter leading a religious life in Strasbourg. The study provides a content analysis of her prose writing, with its main themes of family research, exile, memory, life in the ex-GDR and Strasbourg and examines Honigmann’s place within recent Jewish literature.
