Each year Literaturlenz brings together the Goethe-Institut Chicago, the Consulate General of Switzerland in Chicago, and the Consulate General of Austria in Chicago for an evening of readings in German. Each author represents a unique voice in contemporary German-language literature. In 2011 we welcome Christiane Neudecker from Germany, Dorothee Elmiger from Switzerland, and Andrea Grill of Austria. The readings will be followed by a discussion in English moderated by Susan Harris, Editorial Director of Words Without Borders.

Recorded Wednesday, February 16 2011 at the Goethe-Institut Chicago.
