Now it’s official! My road-movie „The Paper Factory-Die Paperfabrik“ is in the selection of the jury of the 1st Calitri  Sponz Film Festival 2014 (Italy) www.calitrifilmfest.it
The festival is directed by the musician and artist Vinicio Capossela www.viniciocapossela.it
Vinicio is a well-known artist in Italy and recently in Greece, he directed last year in his hometown Calitri the first open-air inviting local artists on stage and during three evenings were 30’000 visitors dancing to the folkloristic music till in the morning ;o)

I feel honored, grazie mille!

It’s always a great pleasure to be there and there’s a special feeling in the air when you are wandering around this beautiful baroque town. This time I was busy to promote my new book and as well my whole work of a decade and was delighted to see again familiar faces.

Matchmaking: networking with international literature
organizers, literature agents and literature publicists
for common projects

It was lovely to see again Franco Supino. In the past
we worked together in another project. Franco’s essay
„Solothurn liegt am Meer“ (Solothurn is on the beach)
is a nice slogan to the literature days of Solothurn, which
is located close to the river Aare

During my marathon, I’ve foundt time to visit
Stefano Benni’s reading out of his last two novels
„Pantera“ and „Di tutte le ricchezze“. Stefano is in
Italy a well-known author. He writes as well theatre
scripts as articles for the three leading news-papers
„Panorama“, „La Repubblica“ & „Il Manifesto“
