“Crossing over – Literature Festival, Kleinwalsertal” / Vorarlberg

Literaturfest @Justina Wilhelm

11.10.2019 – 13.10.2019; in Kleinwalsertal.
Rambling between words and valley.

The Literaturfest Kleinwalsertal invites to experience literature in unexpected places: a church, the swimming pool or in a bunker. At „Slam im Tal“, young po-ets compete for the audience’s favour and strive for their applause.

Only by crossing borders and topological obstacles the Walser migration was once possible. The same could be said for good literature. It also invites us to cross borders, first of all between reality and fiction, or in other words between reality and possibility. But also the relationship between the writers and the readers becomes blurred when the participants meet in the text to create their common history.
