In the organizer's words:

Interview: Moritz Hürtgen

Richard Sparka is back, the "urban neurotic of the 21st century"(Süddeutsche Zeitung). The hero of "Phlox" and "Zuckersand" looks back in amazement at the recent events in his life: his relationship is over, his children are growing up, his parents are getting old and life in Berlin is becoming increasingly impossible. Could Richard's life have taken a different path? Does his inability to live have anything to do with growing up in a dictatorship? And would his view of the future be more optimistic if he had become a mathematician? "Hoplopoiia" (C.H.Beck // with vignettes by illustrator Line Hoven) is the ingeniously comical view of the world by a doubter who has by no means given up the search for the right life. The new
novel by Jochen Schmidt, the "master of the lucid social novel."(DeutschlandfunkKultur)
