LESUNG: Clemens Meyer
In the organizer's words:
The new novel by Clemens Meyer: an epic about Europe's crises and the art of storytelling
From Leipzig to Belgrade, from the GDR to the People's Republic of Yugoslavia, from screen spectacles to adventure novels. Relentless and fast-paced, "The Projectors" tells the story of our present being crushed by the past - and of incomparable characters: in the Velebit Mountains, a former partisan experiences the adventurous filming of the Winnetou films. Decades later, the brutal battles of the Yugoslavian wars take place in these very places - in the midst of it all, a group of young right-wing radicals from Dortmund experience the futility of their ideology. And in Leipzig, the texts of a former patient are discussed at a conference in a psychiatric clinic: How did he manage to disappear without a trace? Was he able to predict the future? And what links him to the world traveler Dr. May, who was also once a patient at the clinic?
