In the organizer's words:

A moving literary evening
Immerse yourself in the extraordinary world of Hanna Krause's life - a touching story about a woman who overlooked an entire century of German history from the height of her crane and understood the people below her. The reading takes place as part of the 25th anniversary LiteraTour Nord in Lübeck and in cooperation with the Buddenbrookhaus.

Information about the book Schwebene Lasten:
Hanna Krause was a flower arranger before life turned her into a crane operator. She experienced two revolutions, two dictatorships, an uprising, two world wars and two defeats, two democracies, the Kaiser and other leaders, good times and bad, later had a good view of the relationships of the people ten meters below her from a crane in the hall of a heavy machinery factory in Magdeburg and died in time before she no longer understood the world.

Information about the author Annett Gröschner:
Annett Gröschner lives as a freelance writer in Berlin. She has received numerous awards, including the Fontane Prize and the Klopstock Prize (both 2021). In 2024, her bestseller "Drei ostdeutsche Frauen betrinken sich und gründen den idealen Staat" (Three East German women get drunk and found the ideal state) was published together with Peggy Mädler and Wenke Seemann.

Look forward to a touching evening with Annett Gröschner on Monday, 26.01.2026, from 20.00 in your Hugendubel bookstore in Lübeck!
