Marcel Beyer: Literary Turning Point?
- conference
-
exhibition
Marcel Beyer, winner of the Georg Büchner Prize, is one of the most important contemporary authors in the German-speaking world. His works are highly acclaimed both by the public and literary critics. His work is impressively versatile, comprising four novels, several volumes of poetry, and essay collections.
His texts are delicate verbal art pieces exploring the literary space between fiction and reality. In Luxembourg, he reads from his latest book "Die tonlosen Stimmen beim Anblick der Toten auf den Straßen von Butscha" (2023). Based on reports from Ukraine, he discusses how literature can respond to the media coverage of the war. Additionally, he presents passages from the essay "Putins Briefkasten" (2012) and poems.
