Here comes another edition (rescheduled from 27.11.) of the series "Schröder +" at the ROMANFABRIK, curated and moderated by the Frankfurt literary critic Christoph Schröder. He has chosen not current new releases, but authors he particularly values, whose specific biographical experiences are reflected in a distinctive way in their literary work. Schröder is interested in the connection between a showcase of their work and a portrait, which he wants to discuss in detail with the authors.
So also with Sylvie Schenk, who was born in 1944 in Chambery/France and has lived in Germany since 1966. Her novels are slim, autobiographically based, tell of intricate family stories, and do so on a very thin edge between comedy and tragedy, which Sylvie Schenk artistically balances in concise language. She was shortlisted for the German Book Prize in 2023 with her novel "Maman" (Hanser Verlag).
With kind support from the Cultural Office of the City of Frankfurt and in cooperation with JOURNAL Frankfurt.

Admission from 6:30 PM
