What do Henri Lavalle, Linus Roth, Katrin Sandmann, Benedikt Engel and Ella Bach have in common? They all try to solve tricky crimes as inspectors or detectives, all of which took place in the Düsseldorf city area. And they all originate - along with many literary colleagues - from the imagination of Düsseldorf authors. Given the number of crime novels set in Düsseldorf, you would not only think that the state capital is a worryingly unsafe place, but that it also produces extremely original criminals and investigators!
This tour takes you to the locations of some literary crime cases, introduces texts and authors and perhaps broadens your view of Düsseldorf - but certainly expands your reading list!
Meeting point will be announced after registration: maren.jungclaus@literaturbuero-nrw.de
An event organized by the Literaturbüro NRW as part of the Literary Summer 2024.
