- ECKART, Gabriele
- Gabriele Eckart, born
in the German Democratic Republic in 1954, now lives in the United
States, where she teaches German. She has published poetry, prose
and interviews; the latter made her well-known with the collection
So seh ick die Sache (1984) because of the critical attitude
toward the East German state displayed by the "average" workers
who were interviewed. A collection of short stories, Hitchhiking
, is available in English translation from the University of Nebraska
Press.
