»IN ERWARTUNG EINES GLÜCKS« LESUNG MIT SYLVIE SCHENK

In the organizer's words:

A German-French writer is admitted to hospital with a suspected stroke. She is quickly given the all-clear, but has to stay in hospital for a while and settles in at home. She begins to describe her everyday life, her new life between hospital rooms and examinations. She remembers her deceased husband, gets to know her roommate, a young Muslim woman, and an enigmatic patient who reminds her of Houellebecq. With "subtle humor and a sense of the absurd" (SWR Kultur), Sylvie Schenk's new novel (Hanser) tells of the happiness that can lie in unexpected encounters.
