This volume investigates how German-language postmemory narratives are helping to renew national memory discourse. It examines works produced since 1989 that are located on the threshold between document and fiction. By searching for (auto-)biographical traces, and carrying out archaeological excavation and detective investigation, these works are both a medium and reflection of the pluralization of remembering.
