The Passepartout bookstore has developed into a cultural meeting point in Bad Rappenau in the past ten years.The shop of Annick Achour and Georg Zwölfer is becoming more and more a literature platform.
The two of them celebrated the milestone birthday together with the city library.They spanned the Swiss author Simone Lappert with the SWR3 presenter Kristian Thees.And although Lappert is devoted to a shattering topic in her second novel "The Jump", the moderated reading comes into a humorous piece of entertainment.
Lecture of the first lines
Manu drops from the high -rise roof.So much is safe.she jumps.Simone Lappert describes the end of the young woman on the first one and a half pages.Already when you read you fall along and get goose bumps.But when Simone laps in her delicate leopard dress and the carefully manicatures, red -painted fingernails on the lean hands on the stage and memorized these first lines, 70 listeners keep your breath away.This is the finest head cinema.
Kristian Thees turns out to be a congenial addition to the author
The Diogenes-Verlag writes, the history of this idiosyncratic woman and the figures, "on which we have biased or unashamed," reflects the plump life: "With Esprit, sensuality and humor, Simone Lappert tells of the fragile balance of our present."
Kristian Thees and Simone Lappert play the balls twice 45 minutes.Bookseller Annick Achour had met Thees at a reading by Antony McCarten as a moderator who teases exciting statements from his counterpart.
She performs the long change of email that she has led to get Thees and Lappert.The audience laughs tears.In fact, Annick Achour had the right nose.Thees, who already had an appointment, said after reading the novel."After 15 pages it was clear: this is a book that I like," he says in Bad Rappenau.
Short price of the aspect literature price
The ten characters who created and interwoven with each other to the moderator likes the ten figures.He raves about her easy narrative style, her humor, and picks up the work himself to present passages.Kristian Thees is looking forward to how Edna takes a wood from the match box and pulls out the red head with the teeth, "wonderful, this sulfur crisp".As a reader, he likes "the little sentences, the beautiful thoughts".
Five years ago, Simone Lappert's first book "Wurfschade" was on the shortlist for the aspect literature price.Now she makes a jump all the way up - and leaves a lasting impression with her novel.
