Tübingen Book Festival

The Tübingen Book Festival will once again attract thousands of enthusiastic visitors to Tübingen. Readings in the garden of the Evangelisches Stift, in the courtyard of the Wilhelmsstift, under the plane trees behind the Stiftskirche, and at many other attractive locations in the historic old town – the Book Festival knows how to enchant with a wonderful atmosphere. A selection of current German and international literature brings visitors into personal contact with their favorite authors or allows them to discover new, exciting voices in the ever-changing landscape of poetry and writing. Tübingen will thus become, as Roger Willemsen once said, the "Woodstock of literature" once again this year. Confirmed participants include Sascha Stanisic, Doris Knecht, Takis Würger, Raoul Schrott, Caroline Wahl, Burghart Klaußner, and many more. The special opening event will take place on Wednesday, September 24, at the Kino Museum with Edgar Selge and Franziska Walser, who will read from Rilke's Duineser Elegies.
