Description

**PLEASE NOTE: This event will be held in German.**

Ilija Trojanow is a prize-winning and best-selling German novelist and travel writer, the author of many books of fiction and non-fiction, including The Collector of Worlds, Along the Ganges, and Mumbai to Mecca. His autobiographical debut novel was adapted into the award-winning film The World Is Big and Salvation Lurks Just Around the Corner. Trojanow is one of the foremost German public intellectuals, and has written on domestic surveillance, global warming, and the human condition in the age of globalization. He will read from his novel EisTau (engl. Translation publ. by Versobooks in 2015: The Lamentations of Zeno), a haunting literary reflection on global warming.
