Sofa Reading: G. A. E. Papageorgiu – Usserstri

Description

During the sofa readings, Swiss debut authors sit on a shared apartment sofa or an artist's couch and present their texts in a personal setting. The Zurich-based author and songwriter G. A. E. Papageorgiu presents a thrilling vision of the future in her debut novel «Usserstri» (Arisverlag 2026): Almost all of Europe is united under a regime that rules with an iron fist. The last free spot is in the heart of Zurich. The small Usserstri, covering 4.89 km², cannot be defeated and continues to do as it pleases. But after a treacherous murder, even here the house is not in order, and the investigations become more difficult than expected.
