Start your day with a journey through magical realism and adventure with German novelist, playwright and international bestselling author Daniel Kehlmann. Kehlmann will introduce us to his latest novel, Tyll, a masterful retelling of the German myth of Tyll Ulenspiegel: a story about the devastation of war and a beguiling artist’s decision never to die. Kehlmann’s account of writing this famed seventeenth-century vagabond trickster will have you similarly wishing for this entertaining conversation to never die.
