as part of the 23rd Ahrenshooper Literaturtage
Reading to accompany the new publication
The sea - for many people it has always been the most beautiful place to get away from the daily grind, to organize thoughts and put them down on paper: to dream, to spin crazy ideas, to set off for new shores barefoot, even in your head. In her fine feuilletonistic style, the author presents an impressive selection of prominent names from literature who loved the sea and wrote by the sea, including Else Lasker-Schüler, Klaus Mann, Heinrich Heine, Rose Ausländer, Siegfried Lenz, Katherine Mansfield, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and Simone de Beauvoir. A reading pleasure along the North Sea and Baltic Sea with detours into Mediterranean spheres.
