Das Mädchen, mit dem die Kinder nicht verkehren durften is a novel by the German writer Irmgard Keun, published in 1936. The story follows a group of children in a small German town during the 1930s and explores themes of friendship, social exclusion, and the complexities of childhood in a turbulent historical context.
Irmgard Keun was a German novelist. Noted for her portrayals of the life of women, she is described as "often reduced to the bold sexuality of her writing, [yet] a significant author of the late Weimar period and die Neue Sachlichkeit." She was born into an affluent family and was given the autonomy to explore her passions. After her attempts at acting ended at the age of 16, Keun began working as a writer after years of working in Hamburg and Greifswald. Her books were banned by Nazi authorities but gained recognition during the final years of her life.
