LitFest: Writing Between Languages was a multi-day event at Bard College Berlin featuring readers from Berlin-based writers who are pushing linguistic boundaries. With this event Bard College Berlin embraces the postmonolingual condition that characterizes all activities on our campus and draws attention to a practice that also increasingly shapes the literary scene in Berlin: Living and writing in or between multiple languages. The event was held bilingually in German and English.
Tomer Gardi and Matthias Nawrat delivered readings from their work. Both authors were born outside of Germany but now live in Berlin and write in German.
LitFest was organized by Dr. Martin Widmann and it was sponsored by the Deutsche Literaturfond Neustart Kultur.
