Manon Gropius (1916-1935) was the daughter of Walter and Alma. Her attempts to free herself from maternal expectations and the recurrent image of herself in her stepfather’s novels are moving. As a translator of Robert Walser and many others, Reidel knows well the world of inter-war Vienna and Berlin that he writes about here.
