Where Desire Learned My Name [German]

By Käthe Bachler

Where Desire Learned My Name is a quiet, unsettling exploration of intimacy, power, and the fragile boundaries of identity. When a solitary narrator encounters a stranger who seems to recognize them too deeply, a relationship begins that is less about attraction than about being seen - and the cost of being seen too completely. As conversations turn into mirrors and longing becomes a form of influence, the narrator must confront not only the other's obsession, but their own hunger for significance, reflection, and emotional gravity.

This is not a story of romance, but of proximity. Not of love, but of the ways we use longing to shape ourselves and others. With lyrical precision and psychological tension, the novel traces how desire can feel like recognition, how attention can become power, and how reclaiming the self is often quieter - and braver - than surrendering it.
