»STORIES 2« LESUNG MIT JOY WILLIAMS

In the organizer's words:

Moderation: Paul Ingendaay(FAZ)
Reading: Ulrike Kriener

She is the grand master of the American short story, enjoys cult status and is celebrated by Jonathan Franzen, Lauren Groff and Don DeLillo: Joy Williams (*1944). In 2023, she published - finally! - her collection of stories "Stories" was published in German translation in 2023, now the second volume with 13 new and classic texts follows (dtv // Engl. by Julia Wolf). With "obscene grandeur"(Süddeutsche Zeitung), Joy Williams tells of strange children, of people who are at odds with the world, of the lonely and overlooked. Comedy flickers between shattered dreams and the stories lead us, sentence by sentence, into the unpredictable. "Hellishly good"(Die Welt).
