60 Kilo Sundays - Reading with Hallgrímur Helgason

Description

Moderation: Alex Rühle (SZ)
Reading: Thorsten Krohn What will become of the great dreams of a country – and of its people? With "60 Kilo Sundays" (Tropen // German by Karl-Ludwig Wetzig), Hallgrímur Helgason continues his great Icelandic narrative. Against the backdrop of economic crisis, class struggles, and social change, he combines historical upheavals with the dramas of everyday life – clever, humorous, and full of narrative zest. Since "101 Reykjavík," Helgason has been regarded as the defining literary voice of Iceland. With his "60 Kilo" trilogy, he tells the story of this unconventional country as a poetically pointed saga and "torpedoes all Iceland clichés with black humor" (Die Welt). ADMISSION: €16 / €10
