To mark the 50th anniversary of Mascha Kaléko’s death, the Harbour Front Literature Festival is commemorating one of the most important poets of the 20th century with a literary and musical evening – about exile and memory, about the magic of language, longing and self-assertion. The programme kicks off with the exclusive book premiere by Volker Weidermann: »Wenn ich eine Wolke wäre« is a touching approach to Kaléko’s life and language. This will be followed by the programme »Nirgendland – Ein Abend für Mascha Kaléko«, performed by the Etta Scollo Trio and Corinna Harfouch – an interplay of music, poetry and voice that is as intimate as it is universal.
