A confessional comedy performance by literary translator and writer Petra Kindler, on the joys and perils of cross-cultural creative work, surviving homemade hurricanes and the challenging concept of laughing with a German. Warning: Petra is going to mention The War! Caution: she might upset some people's preconceptions! She will also be touching on lighter issues such as the Inquisition, polka dots, stylish lesbian graphic designers, the difference between dental braces and therapy, a coerced visit to Ireland leading to romance, emigration, and receiving robust nocturnal career advice from disembodied voices.
