After being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2009, Herta Mller attained great prominence around the world. Commentators, especially in Englishspeaking countries, seemed shocked by the decision. One of the primary concerns was that Mller was relatively unknown. This work seeks to address this and other concerns by looking at reviews of her works in German and Englishlanguage publications both before and after the Nobel Prize was awarded. This thesis analyses chronologically the reception of her books beginning with Niederungen in 1982 and ending with the reception of her novel Atemschaukel in 2009. It compares the reception of the original German text to that of the English translation; therefore only works which have been translated and published in English are discussed. While Mller's work did not top the bestseller charts, at least before the Nobel Prize, she was hardly the completely unknown author that some in the Englishlanguage media believed. This work seeks to present trends in the reception as well as provide a basis for further study of the reception of Herta Mller.
