Tessniem Kadiri reads in Augsburg about family, distance and true emancipation
When family stories become uncomfortable, the most honest literature often begins. At Respect! Tessniem Kadiri – Daddy Issues, the author speaks on November 5, 2026, at the City Library Augsburg about the most formative and challenging relationship of her life: the one with her father.
A literary search with a personal core
Tessniem Kadiri reflects on her childhood in her debut, where she observed the affectionate interactions of her friends with their fathers and particularly felt her own familial distance. This experience is the basis for a reading that connects personal memory with societal questions.
Between Daddy Issues and big questions
The focus is on conflicts that cannot simply be resolved with a quick happy ending. Kadiri asks when and why a father-daughter relationship becomes unbalanced, what influence toxic male images have, and how concepts of family, origin, and emancipation shape one's life.
Respect! Augsburg lives diversity
The event is part of the series Respect! Augsburg lives diversity, organized by the City Library Augsburg and the Office for Social Integration. The format brings together literature, social exchange, and different perspectives. Instead of ready-made answers, the audience can expect an open literary engagement with origin, role models, and familial closeness.
An evening for curious readers
The reading is aimed at teenagers and adults. In the S-Forum of the City Library, a concentrated atmosphere is created for an evening where literature is not only read but invites reflection on one's own relationships. The responses from the audience may be just as personal as the text itself: sometimes contemplative, sometimes affected, occasionally accompanied by the relieving laughter over a truth one has long known.
Conclusion: Tessniem Kadiri combines autobiographical observation with social relevance and transforms a complicated family story into a literary quest for answers. Admission is free, no registration is required. Those who value literature with attitude, personal perspectives, and lively conversations experience this evening best live in Augsburg.
