德国31岁女作家卡罗琳·瓦尔(Caroline Wahl)凭借多部畅销小说在德国文坛引发关注与争议 1。她至今已出版三部小说,均登顶德国小说畅销榜 1。其2023年出版的处女作《22 Bahnen》(22 Lengths)德语版销量超过100万册,该作不仅被纳入学校课程,还被改编成电影 1。瓦尔的第四部小说《1999 Meter über dem Meer》将于8月28日出版,被视为今夏最受期待的新书之一 1。
尽管作品销量极高,瓦尔至今未获得德国最高文学奖项——德国图书奖的提名 1。2024年,她在Instagram上发文称:“我很伤心也很生气我没有被列入长名单,即使我不知怎么的知道这会发生。我的经纪人说,是因为太成功了。” 1 瓦尔在社交媒体上因直白表达野心、公开谈论物质成功而遭受批评,她本人认为相关争议带有性别歧视色彩 1。面对外界评价,瓦尔向《南德意志报》坦言:“我喜欢引发争议。我喜欢没有灰色地带,人们要么恨我,而且是非常恨我(……)。要么他们喜欢我。” 1
Caroline Wahl, 31, has published three novels to date, all of which reached the top of Germany's fiction bestseller lists 1. Her debut novel, "22 Bahnen" (22 Lengths), published in 2023, sold more than a million copies in German-language editions, and has been added to school curricula and made into a film 1. Her fourth book, "1999 Meter über dem Meer," is set to be released on August 28 and is considered one of the most anticipated new books of the summer 1.
Wahl openly expresses her ambition and discusses her material success, which has drawn criticism on social media; she believes the controversy carries sexist undertones 1. She has not been nominated for the German Book Prize, Germany's highest literature award 1. In 2024, Wahl posted on Instagram: "I'm sad and angry that I have not been included on the longlist, even if I somehow knew this would happen. Too successful, says my agent" 1. Wahl told Süddeutsche Zeitung: "I enjoy being polarizing. I like that there's no gray area, people either hate me, and then they really hate me (...). Or they like me" 1.
