Focusing on the novels Izol'da by Irina Odoevtseva, Mys bur' by Nina Berberova, Kind aller Lander by Irmgard Keun, and Heimatsuchen by Ilse Tielsch, this book is the first in its field to examine the literary representation of the adolescent girl in exile.It explores the interplay of themes and images relating to adolescence, femaleness, and exile through a close reading of each individual text as well as from a comparative perspective. This book highlights the work of four women writers who have only recently begun to gain scholarly recognition. Additionally, it situates both the works and their authors in their historical context and in the context of Slavic or Germanic scholarship."--BOOK JACKET. 0a20th century 0aGerman literature 0aHistory and criticism 0aRussian literature 0aTeenage girls in literature 0aLiterature: Classics 0aRussian literature, history and criticism 0aGerman literature, history and criticism, 20th century
