From next year, the Leipzig Book Fair intends to establish a fixed program line with changing curated focal points. To kick things off, the focus will be on literature from the Danube region, the fair announced. Under the motto "Danube - Under Current and between Worlds", book presentations, discussions and debates will take place in Hall 4 on all days of the fair.
The program is curated by former ARD Southeast Europe correspondent Stephan Ozsváth and developed together with partners such as the Federal Foreign Office, the Federal Agency for Civic Education, the Goethe-Institut, the European literature network Traduki, the City of Leipzig and cultural institutions of the participating countries.
