| Siri Hustvedt reading in Cologne |
April 8, 2008. An overflow crowd of 350 predominantly young readers were eager to hear American author Siri Hustvedt read from her new novel "The Sorrows of an American" at a program event in Cologne on April 8. A cooperative venture of the German publisher Rowohlt, Literaturhaus, the Consulate and national women’s magazine "Brigitte", the reading highlighted an American writer whose current book focuses on family history, remembrance, and the mysterious constituents of identity. Dennis Scheck from Deutschlandfunk moderated the reading/discussion and German actor Boris Aljinovic read excerpts from the book in German.
