Lokusblüten

Description

Allerige allerhanden is going to the toilet. However, a large part of the aesthetic literature hesitates to follow its protagonists to the quiet place. But, as fans of Joyce's Ulysses know: There are also texts that do not suffer from creative constipation! As part of an entertaining dialogue with readings, Magnus Wieland presents his anthology Lokusblüten: Schüsselstellen der Weltliteratur, published by Schöffling Verlag. Alongside Joyce, authors like Rabelais, Samuel Beckett, Marcel Proust, and Erica Jong pass the WC handle among themselves. - Location: Zurich James Joyce Foundation, Augustinergasse 9, 8001 Zürich. - Time: Friday, October 2, 2026, 6:30 PM - Admission is free; however, the number of seats is limited. Please send your reservation requests to info@joycefoundation.ch. Participants and additional information: Magnus Wieland (Swiss National Library / University of Lausanne)
