Reading by Lot and an Author Encounter: Horst Babinsky at NUTS

On this Monday evening, a literary experience unfolds in the intimate reading atmosphere of NUTS – the cultural factory: Three spontaneous short readings by lot open the evening, before Horst Babinsky presents a main reading offering insights into language, memory, and the art of living. Free entry, open doors for new voices.

Spontaneous Texts, Clear Voices: The Lot Decides

The first part of the evening belongs to diversity. Whether narrative, poetry, or autobiographical sketch – the narratives arise in the moment. A maximum of ten minutes per text, an hourglass structures the time, the audience experiences the art of language directly.

Main Reading: Horst Babinsky Between Memory and Present

The author, entrepreneur, and inventor reads passages that literarily condense his post-war years, flight, and arrival experiences. His autobiography addresses resilience, ethical decisions, and the struggle for position – literature as lived experience. The cultivated moderation frames the discussion about genre, style, and literary quality.

Literary Scene in Chiemgau: Community, Discourse, Quality

The Chiemgau Authors e.V. anchor reading promotion and cultural discourse in the region: regular literary meetings, open stage, followed by author encounters and feedback. The series takes place on the last Monday of each month – a reliable date for literature lovers.

Conclusion

Expect lively voices, precise language, and approachable author encounters. Two focused hours of literature – free, inspiring, rich in discourse. Experience it live.
