In the organizer's words:

The novel "The Reader" made Bernhard Schlink a world-famous author, it has been translated into over 50 languages, won national and international awards and was made into a film with Oscar winner Kate Winslet in 2008. The bestselling author lives in Berlin and New York, he is a lawyer and university professor emeritus. Until 2006, he was a judge at the Constitutional Court for the state of North Rhine-Westphalia in Münster. With Gerechtigkeit (Justice), he has now published a clear-sighted essay: "Everyone wants justice - always for themselves, sometimes for others, rarely for everyone. But what is justice, and how can it be achieved? Bernhard Schlink offers neither an ideal concept nor a simple formula. His concern is more modest. He shows how we have to keep searching for just solutions and how we can find them. Schlink provides a guide to the work of justice. Mod.: Shelly Kupferberg
