A unique mixture of pub humor, bizarre e-mails and lots of absurd humor - Rattelschneck and Seethaler on their joint book experiment in the taz Talk at the Leipzig Book Fair.
The story takes its course in a Kreuzberg pub: a writer and an illustrator sketch rabbits, camels and each other on beer mats. What begins as a fleeting idea grows into a month-long e-mail exchange in which all seriousness is consistently left out.
