Nicola Steiner, Elke Heidenreich, Thomas Strässle and Alain Claude Sulzer discuss Elena Ferrante's "My Brilliant Friend", Richard Russo's "These Goddamn Dreams", Delphine de Vigan's "Based on a True Story" and Michelle Steinbeck's debut "My Father Was a Man on Land...". More about the show: http://www.srf.ch/sendungen/literatur... The literature club discusses the important books in August: Who is Elena Ferrante? The mystery continues, but her great novel about two Neapolitan friends is now finally being published in German. In "These Goddamn Dreams", the American Pulitzer Prize winner Richard Russo shows a man who never became who he wanted to be, tied to a small town in Maine. "Based on a True Story" tells the story of L., the ghostwriter, and a slow transformation through rapprochement. And, a debut: Michelle Steinbeck tells a modern fairy tale and the fantastic story of a young woman's development. The guest of the show is the writer Alain Claude Sulzer. The books in the show are: "My Brilliant Friend" by Elena Ferrante (Suhrkamp) "These Goddamn Dreams" by Richard Russo (DuMont) "My Father Was a Man on Land and a Whale in the Water" by Michelle Steinbeck (Lenos) "Based on a True Story" by Delphine de Vigan (DuMont) ----- ????
