Reading tip
Tim Krohn, Aus dem Leben einer Matratze bester Machart: Immanuel Wassermann is a Jewish dyestuff manufacturer from Berlin. When he meets Gioia, a young, pretty girl from Sicily, in Locarno, they are both lost the moment they set eyes on each other. It's love at first sight and they get married the next day. They spend their wedding night on a brand-new mattress, which Wassermann is determined to buy from the hotelier, who runs the hotel they‘re staying in in Swabia – not only because it’s unbelievably comfortable, which it is! – but also for Gioia’s sake, because there’s a little spot of blood on the mattress, which won’t come out.

Jürg Schubiger, Nicht schwindelfrei: What exactly is going on around him, Paul can’t say, he doesn’t know. He has, though, an undeniable suspicion that something isn’t right: «He was ill, so it was said, or, had been. But it wasn’t like that for him at all. He didn’t have the precise word for this process the troubled people around him called ‹convalescence›. He added the word ‹contemplative› or ‹revitalizing› or ‹re-emerging›.»

Kathrin Schärer, Johanna im Zug: We are sitting alongside the artist at her worktable. In front of us lie coloured pencils, brushes, scissors, Max Frisch’s «Biography: A Game» and a nearly empty sheet of paper. A railway locomotive and two wagons have been outlined. «I’m drawing a long train, a train with lots of wagons. Does that make a story yet?», she asks. Yes, a beginning, certainly. Then the train’s passengers are introduced – a goat, a dog, a cow and a small pig: Johanna. Johanna intervenes in the story, prevents the small polar bear (is it Hans de Beer’s Lars ?) from getting into the wrong train. She asks for company and makes the acquaintance of a wolf, a fierce monster. Eventually she begins to banter with Jonathan, a pig from another train. Which should do, right? The two pigs pull the piece of paper from the artist’s hand and release her to work on the next story...
