As part of the Annual Achill Heinrich Böll Memorial weekend, I read the first four chapters from Katerina Poladjan’s novel “Upheaval” (orig. Zukunftsmusik), accompanied by my favourite musician Brian Acton on the guitar.
The event took place on 2nd May 2025 on Achill Island, Ireland and was organised by the Heinrich Böll Association and the Goethe-Institut Irland.
A video of the full reading is available HERE on YouTube.
