Das Stue - 豪华酒店 - Melissa Müller

Next talk: 06 September at 2:30 PM

Host Zeèv Rosenberg welcomes Melissa Müller for our upcoming literary talk, centered around her moving book “Mit dir steht die Welt nicht still – Eine Liebe nach dem Holocaust” (With You, the World Doesn’t Stand Still – A Love Story After the Holocaust).

London, 1951: For Nanette, it is a chance encounter; for John, love at first sight. Yet he is about to emigrate to Brazil. While John would be ready to change everything, Nanette hesitates. Having survived Bergen-Belsen as a friend of Anne Frank and the sole survivor of her family, she is afraid of happiness. In letters they exchange, a story slowly unfolds—one of trust, hope, and the cautious return to life.

With great sensitivity, Melissa Müller tells the story of love’s healing power, bringing to life the deeply touching correspondence between Nanette “Nanne” Blitz and John F. Konig.

In conversation with Rosenberg, she shares insights into her research, the unique creation of the book, and the importance of personal testimonies in shaping our culture of remembrance.

Following the talk, Melissa Müller will be signing books personally.

An afternoon for those seeking more than a reading—literature, history, and personal perspectives, accompanied by fine sweets. Coffee, tea, water, and pastries are included in the ticket price. Book your ticket here.
