Next talk: April 26 at 2:30 p.m.
In the elegant Bel Etage Salon, host and general manager Zeèv Rosenberg welcomes renowned journalist and author Shelly Kupferberg. The focus: her moving novel Stunden wie Tage (Hours Like Days).
Berlin, 1940s. An apartment building in Schöneberg. A caretaker, hard-working, disciplined, seemingly inconspicuous. And Liane Berkowitz—young, courageous, in love, ready to resist the Nazis. Decades later, a ragged woman wanders the streets. Everyone knows her. No one knows her story. Millionaire. Contemporary witness. Guardian of a fate that Berlin must never forget. Kupferberg doesn’t just talk about characters and research. It’s about the culture of remembrance. About courage. About responsibility. About the question of what history does to us today – and what we make of it.
Afterwards, Shelly Kupferberg will sign her books in person.
An afternoon for people who want more than just a reading. Literature, history, and personal perspectives—accompanied by fine desserts. Coffee, tea, water, and pastries are included in the ticket price. Book your ticket here.
