PHILIPPUS KLEINER LITERARISCHER SOMMERGARTEN - Johannes Herwig

In the organizer's words:

Johannes Herwig, born and raised in Leipzig-Connewitz, experienced the post-reunification period as a punk. He studied sociology and psychology and worked independently in the cultural sector for many years until 2013, when he finally devoted himself to his long-cherished dream: To become an author. He was nominated for the German Youth Literature Prize for his first novel "Bis die Sterne zittern" and was awarded the Paul Maar Prize. In 2024, he received the Anna Seghers Prize.

In his new novel "Halber Löwe", Johannes Herwig tells the story of a friendship that seems to stand above everything else and the difficulty of taking responsibility. For those you care about - and for yourself.
