Biography from Rosemarie Kurz “Unruhestand” | You wanna buy it? Order here

An eventful life story of a woman born in 1936, who gives courage to put herself on the socio-political stage with an upright attitude, a tongue in cheek and a desire for the cause. It tells the story of a war child who developed special abilities such as creativity and resilience out of her traumatizing childhood experiences. A kind of history book that uses brief excursuses from contemporary history to explain the world and circumstances of a woman who, in her mid-80s, is still actively involved in social life and committed to generational solidarity. An encouragement book for girls and women to trust themselves to get ahead and make a difference without vitamin E (marriage or partners) and vitamin B. An encouragement book for all those who are afraid of aging, of their own inactivity and insignificance. Social participation knows neither gender nor age.
