To mark Roger Willemsen's 70th birthday in 2025, his friends Joachim Król and Franziska Hölscher are joining forces with Martin Klett for the new stage program "Momentum." The Harbour Front Literature Festival thus commemorates one of the great intellectuals and brilliant stylists of our time. In "Momentum," Willemsen's highly personal book about life's decisive moments, his voice is once again palpable: poetic, precise, humorous, and deeply moving. An evening about eruptions, longings, and contradictions—with musical accompaniment to works by Beethoven, Shostakovich, Webern, Adams, and others.
