Literature LIVE: "Fascholand. We are still here in Germany"
In Fascholand, Canberk Köktürk embarks on an autobiographical and investigative journey through a Germany that is not only frightening for people with a history of migration. His narrative investigation examines the state of the nation in a subjective and fast-paced manner. Hatred and agitation, a shift to the right and racism are poisoning the country and driving it towards the abyss.
Köktürk collects evidence, talks to those affected and gathers knowledge from experts. His witty tone, drenched in biting humour, helps us to understand how dangerous the situation has become: our country presents itself as a defensive democracy, but does nothing to counter the structural problems and radicalization in political discourse. A fast-paced and extremely important text that is fun to read despite the gloomy diagnosis.
"Fascholand" will be published by Ullstein Verlag on July 31, 2025, 240 pages
