How closely are contemporary Czech and German literature connected? The series “Wellenwelten / Příliv příběhů” brings together authors from both countries in discussions about literature, inspiration, and current social issues.

At the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, comic artist Mikael Ross and writer Petr Šesták discussed their books "Der verkehrte Himmel" and "Vyhoření" ("Ausgebrannt") with Ludwig Lohmann. Other themes were the city, marginalized voices, social conflicts, and public space.

Organized in cooperation with the Czech Center Berlin.
