"Europe, we are bleeding. We can do no more. We are either still at war or we are still on the barricades, trying with the last of our strength to defend what you have taught us: Democracy, freedom, dignity and life itself."
The internationally acclaimed bestselling author and playwright Nino Haratischwili presents poetic and powerful speeches and essays about freedom, values and democracy in times under threat
Nino Haratischwili is not only one of the most important literary voices in German-language literature, she is also one of the most important political German-language authors of our time. Our times are currently characterized by political aggression and a social climate of hatred, upheaval and a concrete threat of war. What happened in Ukraine must not be allowed to happen again - in Georgia, this fear has become a daily reality. Among other things, "Europe, wake up!" is about this, emotional and personal, explosive and political, in the unmistakably poetic and powerful language that has become Nino Haratischwili's trademark.
On the first evening of the festival, Nino Haratischwili will present her book and her positions in a reading followed by a discussion. The word as resistance!
