»Über den Dächern von Dachau«. Buchvorstellung und Lesung mit dem Autor Dr. Peter Becher

In the organizer's words:

Peter Becher has been known to us for many years through his leading role at the Adalbert-Stifter-Verein in Munich. As a renowned expert on the history and culture of Bohemia, he was a frequent guest. Since he no longer manages the Adalbert-Stifter-Verein, Peter Becher has by no means "retired", but has instead set himself new areas of focus. His first novel, "Unter dem Steinernen Meer", was published in 2022. Anyone who experienced him reading from it last year, with his thoughtful yet gripping delivery, will certainly be excited to hear what he has to say in his second novel. As the subtitle reveals, it is about "Episodes of an inconspicuous life". Perhaps one or the other of us will find more in it than in books about "great" people.
