The 2011 publication of ‘Someday We'll Tell Each Other Everything’ marked the end of Daniela Krien’s journey from her background in Leipzig to the centre of the German literary world. Indeed, the novel’s popularity and high regard is such that it has now been translated into fifteen different languages.
‘Someday We'll Tell Each Other Everything’ is set against the run-up to German reunification in the summer of 1990. The books tells the story of seventeen-year-old Maria, who likes to read, and her life in a village in East Germany. Her interior world is also a vault of secrets sealed off from the society around her and open only to us, the readers.
