Nora Bossong: Reichskanzlerplatz
Moderated by: Miryam Schellbach
In-person ticket €12 / €8 / Streaming ticket €5 / Streaming subscription €50

An intense portrait of the woman who became Magda Goebbels
Nora Bossong has been awarded numerous times for her poetry as well as her novels – most recently for "Schutzzone". In her new novel "Reichskanzlerplatz" (Suhrkamp), the recipient of the Huchel and Thomas Mann Prizes delves into complicity and the evolution of evil. After a tragic accident, Hans and Magda begin an affair seeking comfort and benefits: she wants to break free from her marriage, he wants to conceal his homosexuality. It is only when Magda meets Joseph Goebbels and joins the NSDAP that a rift forms between Hans and her. A novel that spans over twenty years, narrating the paths of two individuals and a country, which were not inevitable. The evening will be guided by literary critic and editor Miryam Schellbach.

In cooperation with the Journal Frankfurt.
