Zwei Geschichten. Eine Subkultur. Lesungen.
PICK OF THE DAY
You cannot miss this event.
In the organizer's words:
Two stories. One culture. Readings.
Tobi takes us into his world: the unique combination of mod culture, style, music and a passion for urban cycling. A book about attitude, aesthetics and the lifestyle of a vibrant subculture.
Martin doesn't write about subculture from a distance - he tells it from the inside. Growing up in a small town in the eighties, the protagonist discovers the world of mods: sharply tailored suits, 60s soul on the turntable, all-nighters until dawn - and the search for belonging. What begins as a style becomes an attitude. With a driver's license, he becomes a scooter boy, goes to runs, to England, experiences friendship, escalation, freedom - until finally the Bundeswehr drafts him.
