Übersetzung: Luise Von Flotow
  • Contemporary issues: an immersive, no-holds-barred memoir of severe mental illness. Compare with Esme Weijun Wang's The Collected Schizophrenias, Susannah Calahan's Brain on Fire, Mary Karr's Lit. Melle is a translator, and the influence of his work on Cormac McCarthy is evident in his forthrightness and brutal honesty. * The first autofiction/memoir of its kind in Germany, The World at My Back was a runaway bestseller and has sold nearly 100k copies to date. First published in 2016, foreign rights have since sold in eighteen languages. * Melle has been thrice shortlisted for the German Book Prize and won the Franz Hessel Prize, the Berlin Art Prize, and the Klopstock Prize.
