Moritz Rinke

A humorous novel from Germany? Written by a German? On German History? Never heard of such a thing? Yet, it does exist! Moritz Rinke, one of Germany’s finest young playwrights and novelists, will discuss the perils and possibilities of having fun with history and read from his new novel Der Mann, der durch das Jahrhundert fiel (The Man Who Fell Through The Century).

This event takes place Wednesday, November 24th and will feature an English-language reading from Mr. Rinke’s new novel as well as discussion moderated by Dr. Wolfram Eilenberger (a professor of philosophy at the University of Toronto and cultural commentator with several German publications).

All are welcome, but attendees are asked to register in advance with ccges@yorku.ca

Location: 626 York Research Tower (building #95 on the map found here)
