Book launch and discussion
Peggy Mädler’s novel *Selbstregulierung des Herzens* paints a multifaceted picture of life in the GDR and post-reunification Germany. At its heart are Georg, who initially still hopes to advance his country with the help of early computers and cybernetics, and the artist Mona.

A rich ensemble of characters develops around them: Roland, the disillusioned intellectual who flees to the West; Marlies, who attempts to reform the system from within; and Mona’s artist friends. They all meet in a village near Wandlitz, where strange, secret construction work soon begins.
