The Quest for Christa T. (Nachdenken über Christa T.) is a 1968 novel by German writer Christa Wolf that follows two childhood friends from the second World War into the 1960s in East Germany. Stylistically it demonstrates a subjectivist experimentation in prose characteristic of GDR literature of the 1960s.

Plot

An unnamed narrator first meets Krischan when they are school children during the end of World War II. With the end of the war they are both displaced but reunite again as young women, when they are both taking university courses.
