Reading / Discussion / Signing with Jean-Pierre Zala

Description

Reading and conversation with Jean-Pierre Zala His novel "The Eternity of a Moment" tells of fate, loss, self-discovery, and a love that can heal across times – between Paris during the Second World War and a search for oneself in 2005. Between the read passages, Jean-Pierre Zala repeatedly invites exchange. In conversation with the audience, it is about love, loss, courage, self-discovery, fate, and hope – but also about the question of how much personal experiences, family influences, and the shadow of the Second World War have flowed into the novel. What closeness is there between the author and his character Luc? What significance do queer themes and the courage to stand up for oneself have? It is addressed to all who are interested in moving stories, historical backgrounds, contemporary issues, and the healing power of love. After the event, Jean-Pierre Zala is happy to take time to personally sign his novel.
