International Literature Festival Berlin

In the series “Reading the Currents”, I present several readings and discussions with marine researchers and authors who have written fascinating stories about the oceans. Eight evenings are devoted to currents and desires, mermaids, islands and coral reefs, refugee boats and luxury liners, turtles, plastic waste and climate change – and much more. The readings and discussions are part of the German Year of Science “Seas and Oceans 2016*17″. They take place in a very athmospheric place called Buchhändlerkeller, Carmerstraße 1 in 10623 Berlin-Charlottenburg; admission is free of charge.
