Salzmann, with her sensitive gaze on a brutal present and her biographical reflections, may be the leading German-speaking playwright of the moment. Her fourth volume in the theater library contains three plays about radicalization in a disintegrating world: In "Do You Understand Jihadism in Eight Steps," the contrasts in the divided Western society collide: on one side, the complacent, alienated individuals, and on the other, the angry youth for whom radicalization becomes an increasingly attractive option. "The Aristocrats" is a study of the brutalization at the end of civilization. Sascha and Schura, who share a common past, encounter each other high above a war-torn city. Below, the people resemble rats, while above, the two engage in a decadent game.
