Reading with Hans-Jürgen Schatz
Erich Kästner's amusing story in diary form "Der kleine Grenzverkehr", begun in 1937 and published in 1938 under completely changed political circumstances, is pure (pre-)reading pleasure.
Erich Kästner succeeds in developing a summer love story from an autobiographical initial situation during the Salzburg Festival against the backdrop of National Socialism and the Alpine panorama, with violent, sometimes absurdly comical entanglements and a good dose of silliness.
Hans-Jürgen Schatz, who has been familiar with Erich Kästner's material, tone and humor for over thirty years, invites you to enjoy a summer treat with this story that will appeal at any time of year.
