Wie erschaffen wir die Geschichten, die wir \u00fcber uns selbst und andere erz\u00e4hlen? Und was geschieht, wenn diese Erz\u00e4hlungen zu zerfallen beginnen? Mit dem Schriftsteller Uzodinma Iweala spricht Katie Kitamura\u00a0\u00fcber die besondere Kraft der Literatur, Mehrdeutigkeit anzunehmen, anstatt sie aufzul\u00f6sen. Ein Abend \u00fcber die Leben, die wir f\u00fchren \u2013 und \u00fcber jene, die wir uns vorstellen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Katie Kitamura<\/strong> ist Autorin von f\u00fcnf Romanen, darunter <em>Audition<\/em>, <em>Intimacies<\/em> und <em>A Separation.
