(nda) "In her novels and tales, Terezia Mora is dedicated to foreigners and homeless people, precarious lives and people in search, and painfully touches the nerve of our time," says the jury. The years "lose the great nomadic city in sight" and explore the abysses of internal and external strangeness. "It's suggestive and powerful, intense in both image and time – with ironic accents, iridescent allusions and analytical sharpness." She receives the award for "her eminent presence and her art of living language that unites everyday idiom and poetry, drama and delicacy".
Mora was born on 5 February 1971 in Sopron (Hungary) into a family belonging to the German-speaking minority. She grew up bilingual and moved to Berlin to study language and theater in 1990, where she still lives today. She has been an independent writer since 1998.
In 1999, Mora received the Ingeborg Bachmann Award for an excerpt from her debut album "Strange Matter". It has been the prelude to many other excellent books, for example "The Monster", which received the German Book Award in 2013, and "Die Liebe Unter Aliens", which received the Bremen Literature Award in 2017.
