Program preview and launch with
JAKOB NOLTE AND ROBIN DETJE

Haus der Kulturen der Welt, 7 pm

Fiktion presents its first title, Jakob Nolte’s debut novel ALFF. The 25-year-old adopts the genre of the high-school mystery thriller for a breakneck journey through an imaginary New England of the 1990s. Together with Mathias Gatza, Ingo Niermann, and Henriette Gallus (project directors of Fiktion), Nolte reinvents the format of the public reading. Afterwards he will be in conversation with Robin Detje (writer, translator, and member of the artist group bösediva).
