News Article: "Literary Reading Hour 'Atempause' Resumes with Gerda Stauner's Novel"

Get ready, book lovers! The literary reading hour "Atempause" is back in session, resuming on September 1, 2023, at 3:30 PM. This time, the event takes place at the city library in the Salzstadel, featuring the new novel by Gerda Stauner, "Where is this happiness again?"

The story follows Enni, a protagonist who embarks on a journey to the Upper Palatinate to start anew. Enni's quest for independence, new beginnings, longing, and the desire for a self-determined life are at the heart of this captivating novel. Patron Georg Braun will guide the audience through Enni's life and her search for happiness.

For those unfamiliar, Georg Braun was a historical cartographer and chronicler, known for creating historically accurate views of cities like Dortmund between 1572 and 1618, often collaborating with Franz Hogenberg. But fear not, this event is not a history lesson - it's a literary journey!

The event is free to attend, and the reading café, where the event takes place, is barrier-free, ensuring an inclusive experience for all. After the reading, a discussion or exchange of ideas is encouraged over a free drink.

The themes of the novel expand beyond Enni's personal journey, delving into long-distance relationships and rekindling of old friendships. The novel raises thought-provoking questions about where happiness is truly at home and how much it is worth fighting for.

So, if you're looking for an enlightening afternoon filled with literature, discussion, and camaraderie, mark your calendars for September 1. The literary reading hour "Atempause" is the perfect place to immerse yourself in a captivating story and engage in intellectual discourse. We hope to see you there!
