Gespräch mit Lesung - Gespräche über das Ganze: Clemens Meyer

In the organizer's words:

In conversation with Jörg Magenau

Writers write books. But at some point they look back on a body of work. But the work is more than just the sum of the books. It is part of contemporary history and also refers to the life that is expressed in it. When does a work become a work? And how does it come about? How do authors look back on everything that has become a work? And how has the world changed in the meantime? Last year, Leipzig-based author Clemens Meyer presented an unparalleled magnum opus with "Die Projektoren" - a history of the 20th century in the spirit of the Karl May film adaptations. In the "Zum Werk" series, he talks about his writing and his literary career since his debut "Als wir träumten" almost 20 years ago, about his novels, short stories and stories, poetry lectures and thoughts on literature.
