Lesung LiteraturSchiff - Silvia Pistotnig „Alles mit Eigengewicht“

What's it about?

All with one's own weight - Are we ever good enough: A breathless text about ideal images and transience My body. Do I feel comfortable in my body? Am I satisfied with my body? Can I accept that it changes? Can I embrace it as it is? And the question of all questions: Why can't I love my body? Silvia Pistotnig is what one might sometimes envy as being 'fit'. A day without a workout makes her grumpy. That's okay, because a trained body signals: I invest in myself, I want to be healthy, I want success. Silvia Pistotnig doubts – and finally listens very consciously to her body. And it asks more critically than expected: Do you actually like me? Can you appreciate me? What are you running away from? And hey, feminist, it snaps, isn't that what you're doing? That hits home. A childhood without sports, a body that one wants to wrest away through motherhood and aging, the great discord...
