Arabic poets meet American short story writers, South Korean poets encounter their Russian colleagues, South African novelists rub shoulders with a new generation of Albanian writers. Fascinating new discoveries stand up alongside recognised masters of world literature, the new emerges, and interconnections become visible when, in 180 events over 11 days, 150 authors provide glimpses into new and traditional streams in world literature. Prose, poetry, conversations with authors and political discussions, children's and youth literature, film adaptations of literature – the ilb is a vital, polyglot forum, staged by and for literary enthusiasts. The international literature festival berlin takes place for the 11th time from 7th to 17th September 2011. It is an event of the Peter Weiss Foundation for Art and Politics (registered association) and the Berliner Festspiele. It is under the auspices of the German UNESCO Commission and is made possible by funding from the Capital Cultural Fund. The focus of the 11th international literature festival berlin is the Asia-Pacific region. Our goal is to make the literature and culture of the region accessible for an interested audience, to promote mutual understanding and to inspire contact and a lively exchange amongst the authors, artists and mediators. Our efforts aim at establishing a platform in Berlin which will allow our guests from the Asian-Pacific region the chance to authentically share their literature and their intellectual, cultural and political attitudes. The festival organisers are concerned with the question: which topics affect the countries of Asian-Pacific region? Concerts, staged readings and film screenings enrich the programme. At readings, foreign authors read from the original texts. Actors then present the German translations. After the reading, moderators and interpreters help create discussions between the authors and the audience. The main venue is the Haus der Berliner Festspiele. In addition, many events take place at different venues throughtout Berlin, for example Festsaal Kreuzberg, Buchhändlerkeller, Collegium Hungaricum, Instituto Cervantes and many more. We are happy to provide up-to-date press photos of this year’s participants. Please contact: [email protected].

What has happened since then has, however, not made our world any safer. All attempts to protect “freedom” have only served to further confine us and forced us to become more cautious. The ‘Literary concert’ on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the attacks of September 11th 2001 presents writers from all around the world. The participants will take turns on stage in groups of five to seven, and present various perspectives on the past decade and the theme of the event. The event's host is the Berlin-based British author and co-founder of »Authors for Peace«, Priya Basil. Participating authors: Mohammed Achaari Madeleine Thien Javier Cercas Ha Jin Rawi Hage Ulrike Draesner C.K. Stead Omair Ahmad Nam Le Ken Babstock Azouz Begag Amir Hassan Cheheltan Åsne Seierstad Adam Haslett • New German Voices For the fourth time, the ilb introduces the outstanding texts of talented young authors who fully deserve an international breakthrough.

Tino Hanekamp (Germany) Antonia Baum (Germany) • Scritture Giovani Scritture Giovani is a project run in cooperation with two of Europe’s most important literary festivals: the Festivaletteratura Mantova and The Telegraph Hay Festival. It works with young European literary talents in order to bring them to a wider audience. For 2011, four young authors have been selected who write a short story about the given topic “Names” in various languages. The texts will be published in a trilingual anthology in English, Italian and German, which will be presented on Friday, 16.09. at 7.30pm. 8 11th international literature festival berlin Participating authors: Paolo Piccirillo (Italy) Anna Lewis (Great Britain) Susanne Heinrich (Germany) Kallia Papadaki (Greece) • Film Screenings The 11th ilb is showing the following films: Moon Mirror Journey (Premiere) by Rebecca Horn, 8 September 2011 at 9pm in the Haus der Berliner Festspiele – Main Stage, ARTE Film Preview: Icelands Artists and the Sagas by Helga Bekkran, 9 September at 9.30pm in the Haus der Berliner Festspiele – Side Stage, a Documentary about Liu Xiaobo (30 minutes) as part of the event “Three Lessons about China”, in the Haus der Berliner Festspiele – Main Stage at 9pm, Persepolis, 11 September at 2pm in the Haus der Berliner Festspiele – Main Stage, and Waltz with Bashir, 11 September at 4pm in the Haus der Berliner Festspiele – Main Stage. • International SLAM!Revue The International Slam!Revue at the international literature festival berlin will take place for the tenth time in 2011.

Now the winners of each school slam event come together for the final. The audience chooses the top three candidates and selects the winner. • Graphic Novel In the festival section »Specials« we will present a literary genre that doesn't often receive much attention. Graphic novels have a greater affinity in their form and content to novels than they do to traditional comics. Whereas comics are normally published as ‘strips’ in newspapers or in comic book formats, graphic novels are usually bound like books. In addition, they often strive for a greater literary weight in their choice of themes and the complexity of their narratives. Under the banner ‘European Graphic Novels’ we will present outstanding examples of this genre – with graphic novel artists from all over Europe. Participating Graphic Novel authors are: Blexbolex (Bernard Granger) (France) Tomasz Leśniak (Poland) Ángel de la Calle (Spain) Lorenzo Mattotti (Italy) Alexandru Ciubotariu (Romania) Alecos Papadatos (Greece) Fabian Göranson (Sweden) Rafał Skarżycki (Poland) Kalle Hakkola (Finland) Barbara Yelin (Germany) • Literature behind bars Literature behind bars takes place for the tenth time at this year’s ilb. Participating authors read from and discuss their work in prisons. In previous years, more than 20 international authors have been involved, reading in six different prisons in Berlin. Within the European Art in Prison movement, the project Literature behind bars is a model for similar programmes across Europe. DBC Pierre (Australia / Ireland) reads from „Jesus von Texas“ in the Justizvollzugsanstalt Tegel, 8 September 2011, 6pm Jaroslav Rudiš (Czech Republic) reads from „Grandhotel“ in the Jugendstrafanstalt Berlin Plötzensee, 14 September 2011, 4.30pm 10 11th international literature festival berlin The reading and the discussion afterwards are closed events, which a few interested journalists can join (registration by 2 September 2011).

The meeting is designed to facilitate encounters between participants through readings, discussions, or in workshops in which the young authors hone their craft. The writers are professionally accompanied in an open and creative environment and are encouraged in their activities. Sometimes, this can mark the beginning of a professional literary career. The event takes place on Wednesday, 14.09, at 9pm. Participating authors: Charlotte Busch (Germany) Yevgenij Breyger (Germany / Ukraine) Olga Galicka (Germany) Marie Micheal (Germany) Rick Reuther (Germany) Max Wallenhorst (Germany) • New Playwrights from Europe – Structure Noise!

Since 2003 the authors have additionally been asked to answer a selected question in a concise and spontaneous way. This year, as in recent years, we have asked about the "Berlin.Views" of our guests – what did they expect from Berlin? What new experiences have they had? The huge resonance as well as the creativity of the responses surpassed our expectations: handwritten poems, anecdotes, essays and stories, accompanied by drawings, photos, collages and elaborate illustrations. The experiences form part of tales of Berlin by known writers. Tino Hanekamp wrote that “Everyone who wants to do something is here. Everything that happens happens here.” For Antonio Muñoz Molina, Berlin is “a forest that takes a long time to cross”, and “the scene, at night, of the best stories of John le Carré”. The Iranian author Kader Abdolah is reminded of “the unpredictability of life” in Berlin. Since 2002, there has been an annual anthonlogy with the short stories of „Scritture Giovani“ participants. The theme changes each year and the stories are then presented by the young authors at each participating festival. This year’s topic is “Names“. The publication records the short stories in all the languages of the participating countries. The programme “Scritture Giovani” and the accompanying book present the authors with the opportunity to introduce themselves in various different European countries.
