»JACARANDA« EIN ABEND MIT GAEL FAYE

In the organizer's words:

Moderation: Judith Heitkamp(Bayerischer Rundfunk)

French-Rwandan musician and singer Gaël Faye became a literary star in France in 2019 with his debut novel "Kleines Land". His new novel has already been awarded the prestigious Prix Renaudot. In it, he gently yet relentlessly follows the lives of Milan, who grows up in Versailles, his half-brother Claude and their Rwandan mother. Why does Milan only know Rwanda from the evening news? Journey by journey, he comes closer to his origins, begins to uncover the secret of his own family and comes to understand the deep-seated trauma of the people of Rwanda. "Jacaranda" (Piper // German by Andrea Alvermann, Brigitte Große) is a warm-hearted invitation to dialog and forgiveness and great literature.
