https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iris_von_Roten

To improve on her stub I plan to add more information about her personal life as mother/wife, the incident she had with a police officer that inspired her to write her book, and her life after her book, how her family dealt with the controversy and her time in Turkey

 * ·        Her book “Frauen im Laufgitter” evoked a negative reaction from men and women alike.

Not in an attempt to run from the backlash as many believed but rather seeing an opportunity to fufill a childhood dream of travel. Once in turkey, she thoroughly enjoyed herself, being able to ignore traditional gender roles she did as she pleased.
