Život i pustolovine trubadurke Beatriz prema svjedočanstvima njezine žonglerke Laure

Beatriz, a historical figure, comes to life as a troubadour who awakens in modern GDR after a century of sleep, confronting capitalist and socialist contradictions. Laura, her juggler, narrates Beatriz's adventures, combining medieval poetry with political and feminist themes. The novel follows Beatriz's attempt to adapt to the new world, her struggle with patriarchal structures, and her search for artistic freedom. Through a satirical and ironic tone, Morgner questions gender roles, class struggle, and the role of art in society.

The structure of the novel is layered, combining historical documents, poetry, and fiction, with an emphasis on a dialogue between the past and the present. Beatriz and Laura symbolize women's resistance against social constraints, while the novel deals with issues of power, identity, and utopian ideals. Morgner uses fantastical elements to criticize social norms, making the work a significant example of feminist literature from the GDR.
