In order to stimulate the student’s interest in reading German literature, the 1st Long Night of Literature had successfully taken place in the MMB library on 4th June 2010.
The students had the opportunity to exchange views on their favorite authors and books. They also attended a Haiku Workshop and learned about the Japanese poetic form. The MMB theatrical group “Bunte Bühne” staged a visual presentation of german poetry.
After the enormous success of the flea market during Long Night of Literature, it has been repeated on other occasions and shall be repeated further!
We also have a bookstore (Der Buchladen) courtesy Goyal Saab Publications in our premises, where you can buy all kinds of books to do with the german language. The Goyal Saab Publication imports books from Germany to make them available to be sold in India.
We also offer DaF and german literature, which is translated in English.
