Ingrid Noll

Donna, 2022

The house in Weinheim dates back to the 1940s and, due to its hillside location, is perched a little above the small street. Ingrid Noll looks out of the living room into the garden. Her husband died last year, and since then the writer and mother of three grown-up children has lived here alone. But the 87-year-old has not lost her quick, subtle sense of humor - and has long been working on a new crime novel.
