Literaturhaus | Großer Saal Friedrich Gorenstein: Psalm
Presented by: Yury Veksler
Reader: Susanna Kraus
“People always beg in Christ’s name, if merely for the reason that nothing else has been devised for the beggar, since a beggar who has always been on the lowest step of society can only use the absolute highest essence to make a living [...] Who on earth would come up with the idea to beg in the name of the superintendant’s assistant...?” Gorensteil (born in Kiev in 1932, died in Berlin in 2002) is an obelisk which penetrates our world like a message from another – an obelisk whose golden point the sun’s rays hit before they do us.
