»STADT DER HUNDE« LESUNG MIT LEON DE WINTER

In the organizer's words:

Moderator: Knut Cordsen (BR)

The renowned brain surgeon Jaap Hollander, an assimilated Dutch Jew, is actually retired - but he never finds peace. Ever since his daughter disappeared in the Negev desert in Israel ten years ago, he has returned there year after year. And there, his life, characterized by unshakeable rationality, suddenly spirals out of control: first he steps into a pile of dogs, then he is asked to perform brain surgery with very little chance of success and finally he hears a dog talking. In his long-awaited new novel (Diogenes // Engl. by Stefanie Schäfer), Leon de Winter tells the story of a man who loses faith in his own disbelief in a sophisticated, fairytale-like and highly political way.
