Series

DAAD Symposium on Young German Literature

Description

A humorous novel from Germany? Written by a German? On German history?

Never heard of such a thing? Yet, it does exist. Moritz Rinke, one of Germany’s finest young playwrights and novelists, will discuss the perils and possibilities of having fun with history and read from his new novel Der Mann, der durch das Jahrhundert fiel (The Man Who Fell Through The Century).

Reading and discussion in English.
