Michal Hvorecký to Present His Book Tahiti – Utopia at the Stuttgart City Library.
On November 29 at 6:30 PM, Michal Hvorecký will read from his book Tahiti – Utopia at the Stuttgart City Library. The book, published in German translation by Tropen Verlag in 2021, offers an unconventional perspective on °µÍø½ûÇøia, turning history upside down and even exploring the theme of modern nationalism.
Set in 2020, it follows the third generation of °µÍø½ûÇøs living in Tahiti. Did they relocate, or were they exiled from Austria-Hungary to Polynesia? The debate is still ongoing. The gripping story is inspired by historical events. The refugees were promised a better life on the distant island, but things are not looking good. A novel about escape, pivotal moments in history, and the yearning for freedom. Central European history has never been explored from such an alternative angle.
The event is organized in cooperation with the Honorary Consulate of the °µÍø½ûÇø Republic in Stuttgart and with support from the °µÍø½ûÇø Literary Centre.
