Festival of Literature

From the 11th to the 13th of October 2019 literary sounds will be heard for the second time in Kleinwalsertal. Listen when the authors and protagonists introduce their works and take us into the world of literature.

Motto

    • Festival of Literature 2019

    "Transcend"

    There are places that are not necessarily associated with literature at first sight, e.g. a church, a swimming pool or an secluded hotel. When these spaces come into contact with texts which have a content-related meaning, the word and the surroundings reinforce their effect and create a unique atmosphere.

Program of the Festival of Literature

Listen carefully to the lyrics from the 11th until the 13th of October
    • Friday, 11th October, Begin 8.00 pm

    Slam in the valley

    When young poets compete and are eager for the audience's favor, one should listen attentively and let themselves be inspired by the lyrics. Lyrical, funny, emotional or socially critical? Let yourself be surprised.

    Entrance fee € 4,-

    SCENIC READING & DISCUSSION

    In 'Die Optimierer', Theresa Hannig introduces us to the year 2052. May we decide freely then? Who will be able to read our thoughts and didn't we want to protect our data better? A topic that stimulates discussion - we are curious.

REVIEW FESTIVAL of LITERATURE 2017

In 2017, the festival of literature was held for the first time in Kleinwalsertal. Distributed throughout the valley, under the motto "get started", people used to batten, whisper, draw, write and even make music at various locations. If you've missed it, it's best to take part at the next festival of literature in 2019.
