NAVID KERMANI AND THE ALPHABET UP TO S.
An author at the peak of her success and the low point of her life: Her marriage has failed, her mother is dead, and suddenly even her vision of a life as a public intellectual is being called into question. The plan had been for her husband to handle childcare and the household while she sorted out the world’s suffering. In his new novel, THE ALPHABET UP TO S, NAVID KERMANI expertly links the most mundane things with the great questions of our existence. Just like his heroine, his book is one-of-a-kind: novel and journal, essay and meditation, a literary celebration. And today, in Cologne, he presents it for the first time. Host: MITHU SANYAL
