Austrian author Stefan Kutzenberger joins fellow writers, translators and performers from Romania, Czech Republic, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, and Spain for the much-awaited, in-person edition of European Literature Night, the long-running program of readings and conversations with some of the Old World’s most en vogue authors. Kutzenberger will discuss on his most recent novel, “Jokerman” in this program. This year, apart from the usual string of readings, the event will feature a discussion about Europe’s literary regions moderated by Trafika Europe Radio’s editor-in-chief, Andrew Singer.

European Literature Night is produced by Czech Center in New York together with EUNIC – New York, the association of European cultural institutes in NYC, and takes place at the Bohemian National Hall on November 22, 2021.

The event will be recorded and will be broadcast at a later date.

ABOUT STEFAN KUTZENBERGER

Stefan Kutzenberger, born 1971 in Linz, lives in Vienna as a writer, curator and literary scholar. Numerous publications on autofiction, art and culture in Vienna around 1900 and on the literary interrelation between European and Latin American literature. Since 1996, diverse international art projects. Two novels published so far (2018: “Friedinger”, 2020: “Jokerman”).

ABOUT JOKERMAN

His name is Kutzenberger, Stefan Kutzenberger. The melancholy Austrian is on a mission to save the world, because he is the Jokerman. None other than Bob Dylan is to blame, even if he knows nothing about it. Everyone who has been interpreting the work of the musician and Nobel Prize winner for literature like a holy scripture for decades has chosen the Jokerman to prevent the re-election of one of the most bizarre tyrants of our days in the White House. The novel shows how conspiracy theories can be created. A revealing mirror of the present, a literary discovery and great fun – far beyond the fateful US elections on November 3, 2020.
