The art of Christa Wolf
When Christa Wolf 's novel The Quest for Christa T was published in East
Germany in 1968, it was denounced by the Writers' Congress as ' a pessimistic attempt to replace Marx with Freud '. Joyce Crick , lecturer in German at University
College, London. reflects that Christa Wolf explores depths of the inner life unknown in the orthodox socialist novel, and that she sets ' a feminine affirmation of love and imagination against the dogmatic efficiency of the totally administered state '.
